Garmin talk

I purchased my Garmin C330 specifically for the speedometer function. I have an old British Sports Car. See the Icon. It has a MPH speedometer and not a very accurate one at that. I have tested the Garmin in my van and it is spot on for speed. I can now mount the unit into the Lotus and travel up to the legal speeds without fear of getting nabbed.

I just bought a Nuvi 350 with 4.3 FW less than a month ago. It would be very sad to know if the product would be discontinued in the next few months. Does anyone on here know if Garmin is working on a 4.5 FW? Hown long would they continue supporting a discontinued product?

Updated 3/26/07

Changes made from version 2.2 to 2.2.1:

* Changed the software version number from 2.2.0.4 to 2.2.1.0
* Fixed problem which prevented the update of aviation data using AvdWebUpdater with handheld aviation devices such as the GPSmap 296.

I paid the $5.00 to download the red light cameras because I was impatient. Do I have to pay again when future updates come out? This question has probably been answered before. Pardon a newbie to Garmin and to this site.

Is there anyway to increase POI the memory of i5? I think it is 2mb now. Is there anyway to have it read POI info from a card? Thanks.

Does anyone have the c580? Have you noticed any coverage issues with the MSN Direct. It seems that I can be right in the central part of the coverage and the signal is either there or not there. Do they do updates every so often and then discontinue the feed or is it a constant feed?

I recently purchased a Nuvi 660 and plan to use it on vacations and trips. One caution I noted was that in California and (I think) Minnesota, it is illegal to mount anything on the windshield via a suction cup. Using the Nuvi 660 in mobile mode and in rental cars, that would be the first alternative.

Hi,
I'm going to Europe this summer and I'd like to buy Garmin's City Navigator. But since it's so expensive, I'd like to sell it when I get back.

Is it true that the SD-card version doesn't need an unlock code? Could somebody else use the SD card after I used it in my Nuvi?

Thanks!
Peter

Please forgive me if this question has been already answered, but I am "brand new" to the GPS scene. I just purchased a Garmin c340 and love it. However, I would like to look at the route the C340 is carrying me on before leaving. I would like to see the route just as I would if using mapquest,yahoomaps or paper map. Is there a way to do this?

had the Nuvi 360 for about a year. Now I just purchased a Nuvi 660. Does anyone know which comparable phones work on that system. I have a LG 8100, it works for calls (receiving and sending). But not any of the other features. Also I use Verizon Wireless. Any Help is greatly appreciated.

Hopefully someone can help me. Everytime I load the red light file all my other POI's disappear from my 660. What am I doing wrong? I am storing all custom POI's on a 2g SD card. Any help would be great. Thanks

Started this group within flickr for Garmin Zumo users to upload pictures of their installs and stuff.

It's new, so not a lot of activity yet...

Great way to sample an audio book gratis.

I recently got a c330 (which I love) and I was wondering if it has the option to display icons for any POI that I may be passing. I've seen it in some built-in GPS systems in a few cars, and I was wondering if I could have that one mine.

I have this great new gizmo and I want to get the most out of it as possible

Has anyone noticed that in the latest POI Loader Beta 2.4.0.1 the ability to delete all Custom POIs from the device has been removed?

I'm not normally paranoid - but what's happening here !! ??

I found this case for a Nuvi 350 on eBay. Sellers says he is working on one for the wide screen Nuvi's too.

I have somewhat of a simple question. Some may view this as juvenile...however it has a mystery twist. Okay enough of that. What does those colors on my i3 represent. Some are orange and some are red. Does it represent what type of road I am traveling on? Please respond. I am a novice to all those colors.

I am extremely interested in linking my C330 to a laptop to pull extra data from the device while driving. Main goal is to try and develop an AVL type solution for law enforcement.

Does anyone here have experience with nRoute as my understanding is this the only software from Garmin that will allow this to work.

We have finally Rx'd the City Navigator NT North America v8 after a 4 week and 3 email wait - now it doesnt want to install. Has anyone had a problem installing this software?
