Negativity and Sarcasm in recent posts
I have noticed that over the last couple of weeks the tone of this site has changed and I am here to make sure that it gets back to a tone that I like.
I am getting quite annoyed with some of the negativity and sarcasm that has been going on over the last few weeks. If you can't be nice, find another forum to participate in.

European GPS
Looks like Europe is getting a new GPS system. The last paragraph gives a good explanation of EGNOS.

My Garmin won't talk to me
Shortly after I got my Nuvi 350, it stopped talking. I have tried changing settings, going back to default settings, etc. Nothing seems to bring her back! I bought it from Walmart.com online. Do I have any recourse with Garmin or Walmart?

Total Red-Light Cameras
Just a little curious as to why the total never seems to change even though the red light locations are updated each week? It's been 298 for a long time.
For example:
"Washington, DC / Baltimore, MD Area (298)" Thanks ![]()

Which is better DVD or Data Card?
I am going to purchase the Europe maps and not sure which is a better choice. On the one hand, The DVD can be used to install as few or many countries as you wish. , on the other hand, with the Data Card it can only be used as is and not transferred to your GPS. The DVD also required an unlock code.

The Chit Chat Thread for the week of April 28th 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.
