Update will be pushed via the Dock. I cannot release them even though I have them till QA/RM releases them to the public... One of those business things.
Thanks,

It was easy to suggest the rand before the dezl software got the route adjustment tool(I forget what they call it, but you can basically click on the map, and the software will route you using the place you clicked). It was the one large thing the garmins were lacking. And actually now, with that feature in place, it's actually easier than the rand mcnally to force the GPS to go where you want. Rand you have to use the prefer freeways, and avoid small roads, or use a via point. It's actually less easy on the rand now. -
What I would like to see is that they scrap the " compare route function " as in the past it has given me some pretty outrageous routes and replace it with an options function whereby when you plot a route it will bring up alternate roads you can use to get to your destination depending on the preferences you have set on the unit then you wouldn't need to set up a bunch of Via's, which in my mind is a lot of waste of time.
Prefer Freeways may work back east but out here in the west it can add hundreds of miles to a trip and for any new drivers or those too lazy to compare routes to their atlas it can send them on a real sightseeing trip.
So Rand: stop adding useless bells and whistles and concentrate on routing.
Just my 2 cents worth.txtodd Thanks this. -

We have the TND 730 and are pretty happy with it. One really annoying thing is every time it starts up it tells us that The map database is over one year old and we dock it and update it every time we go home. I've searched the Dock website and pressed every button on there thinking I missing someThing. Also do you know if there any plans to get more voices on to give directions? Samantha sounds like my ex-wife and I hate her and the guy that's on there it sounds like he is from Scotland. Claudia barely gives you any details at all. We would like To be able to download celebrity voice is like Arnold Schwarzenegger. They could charge for this service and we would pay!
