If you happen to be one of the lucky Garmin Nuvi owners (300 or 350), take note that Garmin has released a software update for the Garmin Nuvi today. This update will take your Garmin Nuvi to version 2.70. Fixes:
- Added option to turn autozoom on/off in the map settings.
- Fixed possible problem with GPX waypoint name overflow.
- Corrected rendering of some diacritic characters.
- Fixed Swedish cardinal direction translation.
- Improvements to Map Info page.
You can download the 17.95 Mb update from here.
I HAVE JUST BOUGHT THE NUVI 300 HOPE IT WILL BE GOOD.
I hope you like it, Ivor. Most people I’ve talked to have been very happy with their Garmin Nuvi purchase.
OK
Can I use my nuvi in Freepert Bahamas? or must I spend $$$$ to get those maps?
You would need to spend money on extra maps, but I’m not away (I could be wrong) of any Bahamas maps being available from Garmin.
Actually, the Garmin WorldMap product ($117) provides limited coverage for the Bahamas. You can view the coverage by going here and then panning/zooming the map to where you want to view.
LOL, pretty tough getting lost on one of the small islands, roadways are pretty strieght foward (litteraly), that is if they are paved. Your BEST bet is print out google maps satalite view and you can see all the roads you need.
I see our nuvi 350 is discontinued; can I still buy the lifetime updates program for it?
Yes, William. You can also verify that from Garmin’s website.
