But not all. I drive buses that still have VHS players in them. Only one of my three personal vehicles have them, none of the buses I drive do. Would really miss this feature if I had to get another unit. It works with the audible book player as well. It not only interrupts the book but the playback starts back up a few seconds from where it was interrupted so you can catch the part just before the interruption so your book flow is seamless.
The only bad part is that the POI files from here, while they do interrupt the music or the book, don't step back to where it was before. Whatever was being read on the book or played on the music is simply missed when the "Now approaching a red light camera" message or whatever other POI message you have is played. It is not the same at all. Wavs are much larger and if using many different announcements for different POIs can take a lot of memory. Given that some people can't even install all of the latest larger map files, this is a serious issue.
And, of course, it means that you can't pop in a mp3 SD or microSD card and listen to music. A load of a one entry poi file with a wav file where the folder on the PC was kb produced a gpi file of kb. A load of a one entry poi file with a mp3 file changed by Audacity for the wav file above to a mp3 file where the folder on the PC was 43kb produced a gpi file of 43kb.
How much money does Garmin save by not including an MP3 player? Also to be considered is of all Garmin users what percentage actually need an mp3 player for music? Personally I would never listen to music on a Garmin. With so many portable players available nowadays I would buy one or just use my car stereo which has a usb port and link for my ipod. I'll never give up my 8-track:- I guess the next thing your gonna tell us. I don't mind go back to 8-track or cassette as long as gas price goes back to 78 cents per gallon.
We did survive without GPS in our old days. Wav's are about x the size of MP3's. However the size of the WAV can be reduced without an appreciable loss in sound quality. For example, I downsampled my 3. There is a rest area ahead.
I changed that in Audacity to Mono, 16KHz bit, providing a decent balance between file size and clarity, with the end result being K in size. I could have reduced the file size even further, but at such a tiny file size the sound quality would be absolutely awful. In general though, you are absolutely correct about the WAV file being 8 to 10 times larger than MP3s. However you are comparing a lossless format with a lossy one, and all things being equal the lossless format is always going to sound better than a lossy one.
On our units, the speaker, and sound quality even over FM , won't make an appreciable difference IMO. Putting POI's on a card, wav's or mp3's make little difference in size anymore. My friend, I still load my POIs to my unit.
I don't particularly like seeing a prompt asking me to install the POIs every time I boot. I have a LM. It doesn't have the check box that says "Don't ask me again" so I would be stuck watching the POI install prompt each and every single time I booted, if I didn't install to the internal memory.
My W doesn't have this issue. It has the check box. Now if they would only replace some of the useful features some of the older units had. Just my opinion. Lane assist guides you to the correct lane for an approaching turn or exit, making unfamiliar intersections and exits easy to navigate.
It realistically displays road signs and junctions on your route along with arrows that indicate the proper lane for navigation. You can also upload custom points of interest POIs.
