I purchased a preloaded garmin c340, and now I have a file I downloaded off the web (gpx file), with all the red light cameras and such, and a different splash screen as well, but my gps did not come with MapSource, the software that is used for that because it says it doesn't need it since it is preloaded. I tried to download it from Garmin, but they only relese the "upgrade", so it does not work.
Does anyone know how to upload these files? Even if it is not with MapSource?

Thanks!

use the poi loader software available at garmin.com. and do not ask the same question so many times????

I'm planning to get a garmin gps but when I looked online, there were so many series available. Baffled by the variety, I don't know which one is right for me. I need something preferably 4.3 inches, a speaking gps, real time traffic alerts and reroutes etc. I don't really care about bluetooth or picture views. Can someone give me differences between all the models?

if you want traffic updates the garmin that has it built in starts at the garmin 370. in other words you can get a lower model but you have to also buy the receiver to get traffic updates

but the "good" traffic receiver starts at the nuvi 680 with is powered my msn. not only will it tell you about the traffic but it will also tell you the times of local movies in the area, local gas stations fuel prices, and weather.

to further assist you the link has a chart called "Which nüvi is Best for You?" which will have a list of different garmins and the features they have so you can decide which garmin best fits your needs

I'm looking to buy a good priced GPS system that will list all the attractions (like museums, beaches, things like Mount Rushmore, ect.). Is there one around like that in the price range of $350 and from Garmin? If not, is there one like that from Tom Tom or another brand?

I would say a great price for a Garmin GPS unit was available at Costco for $349, and it was for the Nuvi 760 which is an excellent unit with 6M points of interest and a 4.3" display along with Text to Speech turn by turn directions.
I would shop around and see what is available, currently, the top unit for Garmin is the Nuvi 880 with the VR feature. The Magellan Maestro 4250 is probably an excellent value at also $349 with AAA tourbook that will offer you ratings for restaurants etc. TomTom 730 at $399 also offer map share and tons of POI's. I would go to a near by GPS retail store and look over the units. If you are in San Jose are, try Auto Nav 2000 Plus, Inc.
