Moving saved locations from one Garmin Nuvi 1490 LMT to another 1490 LMT 
  I have 2 1490 LMTs. The battery in the one that I have been using for years no longer holds a charge after being removed from the vehicle. I got another 1490 and would like to move all my saved locations from the old one to the new one. Can it be done and if so, how? -- Bill In Hamptonburgh, NY... more »

does this make any sense 
  I copied the following from a car group and it makes no sense to me. Is he right? "I bought a Garmin 2610 GPS when it was the top of their line. The list price was about $1,000 and the street price that I paid was about $800. A year later they changed the map format and renamed the unit the 2620. A few years later they stopped supporting my map... more »

StreetPilot 2720 Glitch 
  Ok, you're probably thinking "StreetPilot 2720! What's a guy still doing with that?" Well, I've used it for years on my motorcycle, and although my new Gold Wing has a very competent built-in Garmin GPS, the old SP 2720 still does stuff the built-in unit doesn't (mileage logs, statistics, elapsed time, e.g.). So, because it's motorcycle-certified and still works... more »

Garmin 60Cx display fading away, auto switching off and hanging - data card 129 files?

Garmin Express indicates map update available but it's already installed. 
  Garmin Express tells me there is a map update available (Full Coverage of North America (2013.40)) for my nuvi 1450 but that update is already installed. When this happened the first time, I let it re-install the update; now I'm getting the update available indication again. The only issue might be that my map is installed on the plug-in flash memory card... more »

Nuvi 880 used for nautical navigation? 
  Can anyone tell me if I can use my Garmin Nuvi 880 for navigation on water from one navigation way point to another? I'm heading to Bahamas next year and would take it with me if it will work. Thanks, Tarpon
