Welcome / open talk

I am interester in what all I can do with my NUVI 680

I just went to the redlight page and downloaded the enforcement camera file. I notice that there are two icons available, one for speed and one for redlights. Does the enforcement file contain both speed and redlight cameras? If not, where do I find the speed file?

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.

Way to go, team!

This week we are recognizing Aarrggh, DRMCMTR, Scott K and Space for the Poppa as our contributors of the week.

Aarrggh, your contribution this week of the custom vehicles icon FAQ thread was something that I have been wanting on the site for weeks now, thanks so much for showing us all how to make it happen.

Here is a real slick website. The world maps can be edited by anyone.

Someone suggested that I try poi2go at http://www.poi2go.com/mypoi/. Has anyone used this program and if yes did you get the results you expected?It looks like it may have some limit use.

Looking for a way to listen to my mp3's w/o going thru the FM modulator. it sounds like crap.

my truck stereo deck does not have an ipod type input jack nor do i have an AUX channel. i have an amp connected to my deck via RCA pre-outs. the amp only has ONE RCA input.

I'll bet someone filed a big lawsuit!

I'll be heading to Saint Thomas later this year and was wondering if anyone has attractions for the US Virgin Islands. I see the islands are included in the NA NT map so there are some built in POIs.

Good afternoon to all. I am new to POI Factory and I must say for the last few days i have come to the realization that this is he best site on the internet. Everyone seems so friendly and willing to help out, (something i don't see a lot of in New York). I look forward to gathering advice and eventually giving it as well.

Pretty cool link...

I have a family member who has a Dell gift card, using that along with online discounts, he can get a really cheap Pharos Drive 150 GPS. I've looked at the specs and it has a Surf StarIII (Which my nuvi sadly is missing). It is a really low end unit, and doesn't allow for Red Light POI or others to be loaded.

There's this one particular spot where my Garmin wants me to make a left turn even tho' a "No Left Turn" sign is posted there. Is this the type of error I should report to Navteq and/or Garmin? I have no idea if their map database carries that level of detail.

Hi,

I have Garmin nuvi which shows left turn at NE 148th Ave Bellevue, WA which physically doesn't exists...

Has someone [using other GPS brands] observed such error in this area?

Thanks in advance for the response.

Greetings:

Is it just me (nuvi 760) or does Garmin's webupdater continue to "reload" updates that are already current? At times it will filter what it has already accomplished, yet later try to re-install the same old files! This is in regard to text, traffic & voice files. Thank you...

circuitcity.com has the Mio H610 Handheld GPS/Media Player (H610) $149.99 shipped. I have two Nüvi's for my cars but looking for a hand held. Any thoughts?

Thanks,
M

I just got off the phone with Garmin, the nuvi kept disconnecting from my Blackberry Pearl 8130. I did the bluetooth update (3.20) about 3 weeks ago with web update and it seemed to work great for a day or two, then kept disconnecting. The Garmin service rep helped me to downgrade the software to 2.80, and all seems to be good... for mow...
