My Garmin nuvi 1460 arrived today and I am sure pleased with the 5' display. It's just huge! BTW I was wondering what should I choose for the GPS mode? Normal or MSAS/WAAS. I wonder what it means.
Use normal. Sin-Mal do not have MSAS/WAAS ground stations to support for better accuracy. Google for info on this
Any extra thing I should do? Currently updated my software to version 2.50 and awaiting for the malsingmap update (2010.20)
Open the manual and read it, play with your unit before attempting advance stuff. Read our library for more info
The new device also experiencing random shutdown while I was operating it. Perhaps it's because of the low battery? There is not even a single bar at the moment I turn it on upon unboxing it. I wonder will full charge prevent it?
As with any gadget with built in battery, charge it overnight to fully charge the battery.
BTW how long does it take to fully charge the device? I'm using the USB cable that is included as I do not have the AC adapter which I believe is an optional accessory.
USB port does limit the amount of current output so it will take longer to fully charge the Nuvi
