External mic for Nuvi 680

I was wondering if the external mic is worth buying for the 680 and if anyone has had any experience with it.....sometimes the party I am talking to gets an echo........would an external mic help that?..........Dave

proximity alarm

I have a number of custom POI files on my Nuvi 350 but only one "speedway stations" has a proximity alarm. How do I change the files so the others have it to?
Thanks

Mike L,

Here is another store that you can add to your Wawas csv file. I don't know the address, cause it isn't on their website yet (which is pretty sad that they can't even keep up). It is 24 and Gas

c5xx usb port 1 or 2

Does anyone know if the usb port on the c5xx models are usb1 or usb2? I believe it is 1 cause it takes so long to copy files from it, but not sure.

Pros and Cons of Red Light Cameras

Badges

Just curious: Are there any meanings to those badges, e.g. windmill..., below our names? I have a windmill. What's next for me to strive for?
What're the maximum number of badges one can earn?
Just curious.

In Dash GPS Stolen

We've had alot of folks post their concerns about the portable units and the likelyhood that they could be hoisted by the criminal element but what about those in-dash contraptions?? Do they have security features built in to prevent this?? Anybody have a unit stolen?? What do the car dealerships provide info wise when they are promoting the sale?? Curious minds want to know!!

Fastest Max Speed

Hi all,

New to the forum - love it so far.
Just bought a Nuvi 680 and was pokin around and came across the airline post.

Thought it might be fun for people to post their max speed attained for braggin rights and all. Did a search for this kind of post and didn't find anything so I appologize in advance if this topic has been started already.

Going to Pittsburgh

I'm going to the Pittsburgh area today so I will see if my MSN will have coverage and work for me.......I didn't realize till after I bought my Nuvi 680 that I did not live in the coverage area............Dave

Top 10 must have POI files??

So what are the TOP 10 must have POI files? I thought that would be a FAQ or something.

Thanks to Bobkz, Mike L. & Bdodds....

These three guys have given Miss Poi fun things to play with and I wanted to give them a quick thanks.

I am attaching the bmp icons that you gave me to the related poi files and now we will have fun things on our maps as we drive around.

Miss Poi

A humble suggestion to the staff of POI Factory...

Dear POI Factory,

I turn to the whole organizaition, because I think my suggestion is related to the improvement of both the web site organization and user interaction.

I would like to see advanced search (not only listing) options for the POI postings like:

  • by country
  • by state
  • by interest
  • by device (if specialized)
  • by alerts
  • by ... and so on

Donations...

Hi,
Is there a way to give you money donations other than using pay pals - or what ever it is.. I do not use them nor will I. However, I would love to help out this board by showing my grats besides helpping with the poi and posts. I already got all of your poi that I need and would really like to help out with $$$ if I can..

When I am looking for unread messages, the unread items say "new" and are in red. However, if the discussion carries on to a second page, the latest items are not designated as new nor are they in red.
