I am not even sure that is possible. I think the best one is likely to see is a probability of hazardous conditions, not that such conditions actually exist. I wonder if Rand can get MyWeather to add watch and/or warning boxes ( I have mentioned this before) to that overlay. Like for the Buffalo area and lake effect snow events, high wind warnings- advisories etc. I think I agree Don, it's a neat idea, just not sure if it is doable. For me anyway, the actual weather overlays provide a better hint of hazardous situations- one can see what one is getting into.

Hey Mark,
If you get the traffic adapter, will the GPS unit (720) suggest different routing depending on changing traffic conditions, A la the "Competition" unit does? Just curious as it will make me decide if I get the adapter or not. And man why cant it download the real time traffic over the wifi connection? I know, I know, bandwith, but it would be nice to at least be given the OPTION to do it. Like Google Maps. -
I got a sun visor for the 720 last week that I had ordered several weeks ago before I heard about the redesign. It seems to fit fine but is there any way to tell if it is the new model or the old one? Thanks

FYI, Main Screen/preferences/General/Screen Snapshot Button - turn on.
On any screen in the upper left you will see a camera icon. If you press it, it takes a snapshot of the screen.
To see these screen snapshots, connect the 720 to the computer and view as an external drive. Under the folder RM/User/Screen Snapshots you will find them. They are .png files and we found out that they do not upload well to TTR. You would have to convert them to a .jpg via a paint program.
Thanks,

Hope this answers the question.
As far a Traffic on Wi-Fi, this might be a future feature.
Thanks,
