sure.
If you use and prefer iTunes, you can set that to rip into mp3 for you (it defaults to AAC). Just check the preferences. |

previously I ... |

Nuvi 360 has Text to speech which would help the wife when deciding whether that tiny road is the one the satnav meant or not.
Nuvi 310D comes with the TMC adapter
Both can be had for around £40 ... |

just to clarify, TT510/710 won't say 'turn right in 200 yards onto the A308'?

there is also plenty of room for a few playback control icons down the left/right side of the screen, considering they went for a dumb landscape view.
