    Mark,

    So what's the scoop on this upgrade which R.M. has announced they're releasing on September 17th?

    Will I finally be able to see total mileage for muli-stop trips?

    Is there going to be a map upgrade included?

    Can you give us a full run down of the complete feature list (as best you know it)?

    I have not gotten the approval yet to release all the features and fixes. When I do, I will post.

    Total Mileage for Multi-stops will not be in this release.

    Thanks,

    I have a question. If i have my route set from california to flroida. i do a quick stop search for POI truck stop. I find a pilot 20 miles up the road. How do i get it to route me there without losing my current route from cali to florida?

    If you tap on that POI that you found, the next screen at the top would show "begin new route", but below it is a "add as Via" button. Tap on the "add as Via" and it would add it to your trip without affecting the current route you are in.

    If you need to then arrange the new Multi-stop, go to main screen\choose destination\multi stop\current trip folder to then add\delete\rearrange any stops you have.

    Thanks,
    Mark

    75,000 miles Since March. Still No major issues. Just can't wait till the new maps to fix the going to the next exit then make a U-turn out of the next exit and come back to the real exit issue.

    Found an address It could not find the other day.

    I ended up having it route me to J C whitney way or something of that nature. I believe they changed the name of the road. So new map will more then likely rectify the issue. It was a conway dc. If that helps any with confirming if my thoughts are correct on this issue.

    Also Mark can you tell me where the antenna plug is on the TND700 I have the 500 and it is located on the back of the unit. Thus keeping me from just velcroing it to my dash board. I am trying to find a way to get my unit out of the window. With my Pike Pass, K-tag, and PrePass I got to much stuff in the window as it is. I just want to lessen the amount of stuff blocking my view of everything around me. Thank you for your time once again Mark. You are truly an asset to these boards and to RM.

    If it is a T7E model, it does not have an external antenna jack. I have a few testers whom velco the TND to their dash and they have no problems receiving signals.

    I passed the other info up to RM..

    Thanks,
    Mark
