Owned a TT300 for about six months and now swaping ovr to a I3 basically for the size of the thing and the positive reports on here. Just one question on mapping if anyone can help as the various adverts around contradict each other.
Does the I3 include or not the major roads of Europe if purchased from Argos for £179.
Are cards available from garmin for the I3 for the other EU counties and how much.
Regards
Phil.
ex tomtom owner, almost. |

cant be done due to copyright codes on the garmin card...its to stop you copying your maps and using it in another gps...

I've never used either of these but the following 2 websites let you host a file for free. A download link is generated which can be posted on the forums here for all to access:

Could be worth a try. |

not read the full thread so may have been answered already 
but has anyone who has this have any info on how selecting what type of vehicle you're in affects the route ? i.e if set for a truck does it still take you a decent route or does it take you excessively long routes? or maybe it still takes you down dodgy roads ? |

Been on to MaFt's site and downloaded the speed camera download, don't know if you will read this MaFt but if i download your poi's as well will i lose the speed camera one i have just downloaded? I notice on your poi list when i downloaded onto pc, not yet onto i3 it has speed camera icons in there too. Does that mean that it has all the speed camera's included?
Great site by the way. |
