Will This Work?
I have found a web site with tons of old radio shows, like Amos & Andy 1928, music, ect. They are all Mp3's. I know, or think the music will work in the 660, but will the audio that's also on Mp3's play too. A singer, which is audio on Mp3 will, so wouldn't the radio show work too? I'm hoping somebody knows, or has tried it. I don't want to download something and it not play.

Zip Code POI
I was looking at the most popular list of POI's and I saw one with Zip Codes. How exactly are you supposed to use a zip code POI in a GPS? As you drive around will it tell you that you have entered a new zip code and what is the benefit to that? Thanks

BlackBerry Storm, yet another taker on the iPhone
iBerry? Perhaps... Too bad Wi-Fi will not be offered. Not surprising from Verizon though. They will probably block users from installing 3rd party GPS applications as well.

Brochure
Is there a place on this site that has an example brochure that I can copy? I'm not good with words, but would like to print brochures to post in truck stops about POI Factory. Specifically pointing to my files, but also letting drivers know about the whole site. I do know how to make the brochure using MS Word, but it's the wording I need help with.
Thanks.

How do I upload photos in my "new topic"?
Unlike other forums that I belong too. I don't see an upload choice after I create a new topic. How do you upload pics? Or why is this not an option? I find photos, especially in the "how to" and "installation" type very helpful. A little help please.

Contributors of the week 2008-09-29
This week we are recognizing Struemper, Worrieddude and Sassafrass.
Struemper, You have been keeping me up to date on what is happening with the Red light cameras being installed in Missouri. You submitted a perfect report, you included the Coordinates and everything. I really appreciate how thorough you were in compiling, verifying and submitting this data.

Chit Chat Thread for the week of October 06, 2008
This is the place to talk about things that are not gps related, you can discuss whatever you would like, as long as it is clean. Remember we have families that have their children involved in the GPS fun and we don't want to make parents feel uncomfortable when their children ask what that word means.
Have fun...
This thread will be closed on Monday and a new one will be opened.

file extensions
I'd like to know, it's probably here on the site somewhere, why some posts have two file extensions. GPX and csv I think are the two.
Is one better than the other for my Nuvi 650?

AOL survey
I don't use AOL as my electronics guide, but for those who are interested, this is a paste from their GPS survey. The next nine include HP, TomTom, Magellen etc but I don't remember in what order they are ranked. If anyone cares I would be willing to go back and check for you.

Recommendation for new Forum Topic?
I'd like to recommend a new forum topic......a POI or GPS software related topic? I've seen quite a few postings for POI editors, voice editors, etc throughout the various forums. I think it would be helpful to have them listed in a separate, dedicated forum with the topics locked. I find myself frequently searching through forum discussions looking for software links.

GPS on tracks
I was recently reading one of the threads addressing the GPS use in commercial aircraft. I did try that with a handheld (after 9/11) and had no problems. It was a diversion that kept me amused and made the flight a bit more enjoyable. My question now is, has anyone tried it on a train? The last time I drove north on I-95 doing about 85mph in a 70mph area. a boat passed me.

Web cam broadcasting suggestions
You all are very tech-savvy, so I thought I'd see if you all could help:
I've gotten way in over my head in promising to try to broadcast my cousin's wedding live via webcam so that her brother's wife can watch and others whom may be able to unattend due to traveling restrictions (money restrictions, that is).

Let's hear from you,
Lets hear what the community has to say or think about this topic.
Is Garmin an all American company?
1) Where is the headquarters?
2) Where are they engineered?
3) Where are the products made? And different models?
4) Where are they assembled?
5) Where are they packaged?
6) Where is tech support located?
7) Do they actually make their own maps? or edit them?

New here
I've been a long-time owner/user of a Garmin GPS 12. Old tech for sure, but until now it has served me well. A friend's mom was giving us a ride and she was showing off her new Nuvi and I was instantly hooked. It's in the mail right now!
Icons.
I just uploaded a school zones file to the site.Should i have uploaded an icon the same time or do i just upload one after i uploaded the file? This is my first time uploading a file by the way..lol.
