Hi, I have used a Magellan once before and found it to be user friendly. I had no difficulty entering in the addresses. Problem is I am moving to Salt Lake City, Utah and the streets there are numbered in the front and then there is another number such as 2200 West 1200 South. Do you think this would be a problem with the GPS? I currently live in California and just need something to help me with my new town, rather than mapping everything or holding a stack of googled directions. Any advice is appreciated. Also, I am nervous about the "refurbished to factory standards" and would prefer new unless it is a waste of money.
I am looking for a GPS receiver that plugs into a DB9 port. I don't need any other options, so I am looking for an inexpensive solution. Any suggestions?
I am customizing my ride and have a 6 inch monitor mounted in the dash. I want a GPS to feed into this monitor. I have found only one GPS receiver that says in A/V outputs with RCA plugs but it has only Australian maps. Any sources or information appreciated. Thanks, Frank
According to specs, the battery only lasts for about 2 hours.
Once the battery has been depleted, can you still use the unit, as long as it is plugged in? Or, does it have to have a charge before it can be used again? Is there anything wrong with getting the "3rd Edition"? Also, does the charger plug into the windshield mount, or into the unit itself?
FNG here. Looking for a GPS for motorcycle trips. HD has a trip planner that I use, currently I print a map and go from there. The site has the ablity to auto download to garmin units that have Tech quest and conquetst features. I can also by manually downloaded to units that have GPX file capability. Like I know what any of that means How do I find out which units will do tie Thanks
I have bought many items from EBay, but am "Electronically Challenged". I need some adnice or suggestions on the type of unit that I might need. We travel a good bit in the states & Canada, sometimes by car. My sense of direction is so bad, that I can't fight my way out of a paper bag! Help! Any suggestions on the type & model would be appreciated. Thanks- jwlanier1
I know next to nothing about gps receivers. I need to buy one for a college student. It needs to be simple but reliable and since we all know that "stuff happens" to college students, I don't want to spend a great deal of money. Thinking about maybe a Garmin c530. Any comments or suggestions?
I am moving to the city where the street signs are either twisted in all different directions(vandalism & to throw people off), and other streets have no signs at all. There are many streets in close proximity to each other, and as I am driving along I would like to have a device that announces the streets, (even when you're not on a set route anywhere) but something along the lines of approaching Pine St., crossing Whalley Ave., etc. If you could please let me know what device you feel is appropriate for my needs, I thankyou for your time. By the way I currently have a Garmin 330 which is better than nothing & eventually gets me to an address in this city, (New Haven, CT) but many times it will try to direct me down one way streets, tell me to turn onto a street where there is none, and does not verbally announce where it is trying to take me other than turn left,right in .2 miles etc. Also these streets have been established in this city for many, many years so it is not as if they are new and it just hasn't been programmed into the system yet.
