Mother-In-Law's POI file
Ok, my wife tells me that I don't visit my mother-in-law often enough.
I told my wife I entered her mother's address into my GPS once and for some reason, the GPS couldn't find it.
So I'm thinking that it might make a good project for someone on POI FACTORY to start a new POI project, listing all our mother-in-law's addresses.

What would your dream GPS look like?
Just something to ponder.....I remember a few years ago a friend of mine designed GPS' We were telling him that GPS' should have this and that (BLUETOOTH to SD Card to MP3 Players). Sure enough it's standard now.
So what would you add to new GPS'?

New forum topic: 'Tell me the inside scoop'
Rather than saying where we've been on our last GPS-guided trip, I think it would be more instructive and fun to post inquiries to where future trips are to take us, and get locals from those regions to offer some input as to things to do and places to see.

Its this site addictive??
Hello guys:
I don't know about you...but I find this site to be highly addictive, at this point I really don't know if I play more with this site or with my Nuvi, I was thinking that @ least I check for new comments about 3 times a day although I don't participate on all the discussion topics, most of the times at least I take a pick to see what’s going on.

A brief introduction
Greetings everyone,
Just taking a moment to introduce myself. I've had a handheld GPS for a number of years and more recently a chartplotter for my fishing boat, but all of this "on the road" jargon has me on a bit of a learning curve.

ScottK, I don't know where you found the time to make the 61 files that you did over the last year.
Your files are beautifully created, with all the info that should be included. It is easy to edit your files, I can always find the city and address info.

Screen Shot Frustration
PROBLEM: Performing a Screen Shot on my Nuvi 750 requires that I first go to “TOOLS”, then “DISPLAY” and press Screen Shot (which is disabled). I then have to “ENABLE” the screen shot which will remain active (I guess) for as long as the unit is on (once turned off, the Screen Shot defaults to “DISABLED”).

Credit card conspiracy?
OK, just wondering here. Is it just me, or do all credit cards have the payment addresses on the other side of the country from where you live? Possibly in hopes of collecting more late fees? I think it will be safe to give minimal credit card info, such as type(Amex, Visa, MC), state in which you live, and state where you have to mail your payments? Here's mine:
I live in California.

mp3 playlist creation
I would like to get some recommendations on the best way to create a playlist on my PC for use on my nuvi 765T.
I sometimes like to listen to multi-part radio programs and audiobooks (in mp3 format not .aa) on long trips, and find that it is pretty difficult to do so without a playlist, due to the way the nuvi imports the mp3 files.












dual mp3 song listing on micro SDHC card...
Hi All,
I'm experiencing a problem on my Nuvi 880, with dual song entries, in some of the song lists, on my 8gb micro SDHC card.
When I browse by artist and look through the songs (for that artist) I'm seeing double entries for some of the songs, in the list.
I can't seem to figure out how to correct the "double song entries" in the list.
