 Wow - Boating from My PC !!! September 14, 2006
3 out of 3 found this review helpful
This is fantastic !!! Map out my trips from the comfort of my PC and then download them into my Garmin 2210. Its so fun, why go out? And no more lost waypoints... The only problem is that I entered all my routes and waypoints the first hour, its that easy - Now I have nothing to do but to follow them... And I got a great price $99. I did have some inital problem with my GPS and PC seeing each others maps - Turned-out to be the GPS' software needed to be updated.

I ordered this CD ROM at the end of April 2006. I received version 7.5 from Amazon.com. Garmin is now shipping v8.0 which is a free upgrade (install the 7.5 version, unlock your region, then order the free v8.0 upgrade CD ROM from Garmin's website.)
This map installs easily using the MapSource software on your PC. On the iQue, you can load both the City Select detailed maps and the BlueChart maps into the unit at the same time. If the BlueChart maps are loaded for an area that has the City Select maps loaded, the City Select maps are displayed by default. Switching between the two map sets can be very confusing at first, but is easy once you know the trick.
To switch map sets on the iQue 3600, go to map view. Press the menu button (second icon from the right at the very bottom of the screen), select Options then Preferences. Make sure that you have "Maps" selected in Preferences. Change the drop down box from "General" to "Detailed Maps." Now, here's the trick: Once your detailed maps are listed in the window, click the menu button again! Now you can enable all maps, disable all maps, enable only the BlueChart maps, or enable only the City Select maps.
If you're a boater, you should never leave home without your GPS (the Coast Guard can find you more easily if you provide them with your GPS coords if you get into trouble.) And, having a BlueChart map loaded into your GPS gives you buoy information, channel information, water depths, depth contour lines, etc., and much more! It's like having a NOAA chart in the palm (no pun intended) of your hand which also shows your exact location at all times.

It took me two hours to get everything working on my computer. I found it very frustrating to get started. Once I got the product working it is great.

If you ORIGINALLY & NEWLY unlocked a NEW locked MapSource CD-ROM/DVD-ROM product ON or AFTER the release date of an update for that same product, you are eligible to unlock on that specific update what you unlocked on the original for no charge. In other words, you can update to the latest data for free! visit the garmin web site for more info

What this advertisment does not tell you is that while you get a good deal on the software.You will not be able to unlock it unless you are using a Garmin GPS unit.I bought this unit thinking that I could use it on my PC to drive a Global Sat GPS and found out from Garmin that this product cannot be used on any other make of GPS.The advertisment does not spell this out.Dont buy unless you have or are going to buy a Garmin GPS unit.
