After 4 days of ownership my power lead was blowing fuses and I got a replacement from Halfords. Now after 2 weeks of ownership the speaker has failed and Halfords have given me a new replacement unit ...

Any algorithm has to strike a compromise between speed and rigour. In the days of TomTom3 you could choose from three different options, accepting that if you wanted a really accurate calculation it w ...

as a newbie forgive me if you have found this before, but why would garmin say they don't do replacement leads

I assume that is the right lead as I dont know the part number. I'm just quoti ...

Ok getting back to my original query. the best thing to do is look at a map. I want to get from Dunton Bassett Leics le17 5jl to Coalville le67 4bw. You can easily see from the map that the sensible r ...

Getting back to Noddy's original question. Are there many main roads between the start and destination? I don't know the area and don't know if the route you are talking about is through the country ...

And what makes you think that a quicker route must automatically be significantly more demanding to either compute or provide an algorithm for? The only salient different between the two, being the me ...

How do you get the i3 to simulate the route? Is this a real time simulation?

To you have the start road and destination road. I could compare the results with a C320, to see if the problem is unit specific.

Ok, firstly when the unit is brand new it has to have ...

Thanks Zogman but I dont think that is right. Surely the computer calculates the "fastest" route based on average speeds assumed for various roads. I can understand it taking me out of my way by 5 mil ...

Has anyone else come across this anomaly? I have yesterday purchased a new i3 and so I'm just playing around with it at the mo.
I put in a search to add my girlfriends house in favourites then used t ...
