Didjerrydo Posted January 26, 2006 Share Posted January 26, 2006 (edited) Well, for what it's worth, Garmin just posted an update for the 60CSx. Unfortunately, there's no fix for the issues that's been being discussed here on the forum, like wandering, alarm clock, dumb icons, TransFlash icon, etc. All it does, to quote Garmin is: Fixed compatibility issues with preprogrammed data cards. Some cards may not unlock properly with software version 2.40 I guess they want to get those expensive pre-progamed data cards selling first thing. To heck with the real issues that really need addressing? Edited January 26, 2006 by Didjerrydo Quote Link to comment

moonpup Posted January 26, 2006 Share Posted January 26, 2006 I just sent Garmin and email asking them to address the following, you all should do the same. The more complaints, the faster the fix 1) Please add back the alarm clock 2) Please add an icon for checking memory usage on the transflash card 3) Please add and option under battery for Lithium If I forgot anything please add it when you send the email.

+ATLnative Posted January 26, 2006 Share Posted January 26, 2006 Please, if you send an email, also ask for the units to "stream" data through the USB connection. Thanks Quote Link to comment

+jotne Posted January 26, 2006 Share Posted January 26, 2006 (edited) Here is some of what we sent to Garmin regarding new functions on the old 60C,60CS,76C and 76CS series. 1. Possibility to remove the top line in Map modus (it takes 18 pixels) 2. Transparent fields, sp that you can see the Map trough the letters. 3. The possibility the change the size of the data field. Same as the 76S I like one big and 2 small etc. 4. Speed change between profiles. Like Car, Walking, Plane, Boat etc This is implemented in 76CS Plus and it is in the 276C 5. Larger Track log 6. There are only 10 proximity alarms. Add POI support for the GPS like Quest2 and the new Street Pilot 7. Audio warning before the GPS turns it self off, due to empty battery. 8. Keyboard lock. 9. Information of Waas/Egnos in the statusbar. 10. When driving with Autoroute on. In tunnel and other places were you will lose the GPS signal, make the GPS to simulate following the road. Lots of tunnel with bends. Did Garmin do anything about it? PS this was sent by multiple people in February 2005 Edited January 26, 2006 by jotne Quote Link to comment
+mlk3454 Posted January 26, 2006 Share Posted January 26, 2006 It can't hurt to write to them. It definitely can't hurt to do it multiple times. Quote Link to comment
