Hello i had a question about the nuvi 200.

I''m a motordriver and like to drive routes which i downloaded on the
internet. I got myself a nuvi 200 and discovered that this navigation system
can''t read the routes when i download them from internet. Now is my
question if there is some software available so my nuvi 200 can understand
the routes and i can upload them to my navigation system and drive these
routes???

Thnx

A newbie

The Nuvi 200 doesn't work with routes. You have to use waypoints
(favorites) to jump from leg to leg.

Even then the Nuvi is going to choose the route between points. If he want
to take a particular scenic route the Nuvi will still look for the fastest
or shortest (depending on setting) route between the start and finish
points. They may or may not be what he wants.

He really needs a different model. I don't know just which one though.

sorry - the Garmin basic model Nuvi 200 doesn't handle "routes" -
other, higher end models, do....

possible on the nuvi 200.
