EasyGPS vs MapSource

Isn't EasyGPS one way to go around to avoid the I-cannot-get-MapSource-for-free-from-Garmin ordeal?

Nuvi 680 tabs

I have been looking at the Nuvi 680 to replace my 2720, however I can't tell if these new models have the elevation, address, heading, ETA, MPH, ect boxes on the right side of the display. Can anyone tell me if they do? I would hate to lose those.

Thank you
Roy

How about separate forums for the other brands?

How about separate forums for the other brands?
I currently have Magellan (2200T) and am wanting a Garmin.

There is a Garmin forum, and a NOT Garmin forum. And that's it.

Garmin 350 Memory Clean

I got the Garmin 350 last week & uploaded it w/ all updates (all cars) & a number of POI files. If I want to delete some of the useless stuff (i.e., cars, help files), how do I delete them?

Thanks in advance, Luke

New gps

Im looking to buy another gps. I have a garmine 330 but would like to get one that will give me trafic report.
I use this in a motor home and would like to have one that would give me the best route to drive a motor home.
They are making them smaller and I like that as well.
I do not need one that has bluetooth.
Thanks
Jim

deleting locations

How do I delete a business that is in the GPS but has closed? And how do I add addresses?

map of the philippines for garmin

I recently visited the philippines and used a map that I got from the internet. I was glad that I downloaded it to my sd card because it had a lot of POI's and it did get me home everytime I got lost. I used a garmin c330. I surprised my brother who lives there but did not know the map exists. I loaded it to his Garmin quest without any problems.

Humor is the spice of life!

How about adding some seasoning to this "super-geeky" community by sharing hilarious stories, with our little gizmos as main characters?
Personally, I don't have any stories (yet!) but I barely can wait to read some!
To make a point, I would like to bring up this thread:

It's soooooo funny!

Garmin C 330 & Custom Poi's

This Is what Garmin Replyed;

Thank you for contacting Garmin International, 1. Yes, your c330 will be
able to properly read any custom POI files from an SD card loaded into
the unit.

2. With all of the information added in the latest update, the unit does
not have enough memory to hold both the US and Canada, this is why it

POI proximity alerts

I have tried to research this topic by searching the various discussions on this site but come away confused. I have a school zone POI named Schools@30.cve, which I have saved in my Speed folder. I also have redlight POI nemed Redlight Camera.cvs, which I have saved in my Redlight folder. My gps is a nuvi 360.

Nuvi 350 for $298

Can you find GPI files stored on your data card?

I placed some mp3 and jpg files on my 4gb storage card of my 680, as well as some gpi or tour files. The mp3 files show up when I pull up the mp3 player and the jpg files show up when I bring up the pictures viewer but I can find nowhere that the gpi or tour files can be found. Perhaps I should have stored them on the internal storage under 'extras'.

Not Recommended

I don't think this would be a recommended use for the redlight POI files:

KNOXVILLE, TN -- A $50 fine would've been a bargain for Clifford Clark.

Instead, Clark is looking at criminal charges and jail time.

He's accused of shooting out a red light camera Sunday to avoid a ticket.
