Well on my nuvi 255, the screenshot bitmap pictures are found by plugging the device into the computer. They are in a folder called scrn, within the Garmin folder.

You can't use those screenshots the same as a geo-coded image tho, so no navigating back to where they were taken except by memory.

Besides the obvious use for model reviews, they're also helpful when trying to explain route issues or odd symbols on screen. A picture is often much easier than attempting to write a description. I've also printed my on screen route and route detail text for a gps-less friend a couple of times using the screenshots.
