Looking at the manual i can't see how. I'm most Garmin Sat navs only show the speed in Map (non-Guided) Mode and not in Navigation Mode. |

It's onlyu displayed there (bottom left) in non-navigate mode.
You can display the speed and a whole lot of other info including distance to go, by touching the ETA (bottom left) in navigate mode. _________________ Phil |

nuvi's have a couple of tricks like that - which are poorly documented. In navigation mode you can touch the bottom right (distance to turn) and it will repeat the last instruction and show you a 2D map of the turn. I only found this out by playing the other day! _________________ Phil |
