Jun

2008

Garmin Nuvi LinuxIt has been mentioned here and there that some of the newer Nuvi devices might be running on the Linux platform. Looking for confirmation? Garmin has now posted the source code for the Nuvi 800 and 5000 series devices on their developer site. (Thanks to a eagle-eyed forum member for the tip.) So go ahead, download the source code, and get cracking with some nifty third party hacks and customizations Nuvi owners have been desiring for ages.
