Changes made from version 2.50 to 3.00:

* Allow panning from main map. Touching vehicle on main map
displays coordinates and elevation in save dialog.
* Added more fields to the trip computer including fuel gauge
odometer.
* Enabled compass display full time with additional data fields.
* Enhanced XM weather support which is available from XM button on
the main menu.
* Enhanced traffic incident reporting.
* Added support for SDHC cards and increased MP3 playlist limit to
1000 songs.
* Added Audible books support.
* Added option to limit BT headset audio to phone only.
* Added option to display track log on map.
* Added track log archive function.
* Modified import /share pictures to work directly from jpeg

level where favorites are displayed.
* Disables auto-zoom operation when off-road.
* Added ability to treat certain route vias as shaping points
which will not be flagged or announced. Qualified shaping points are
Intersections and points on roads which are not addresses, such as
I-35N or HwyA. Requires routes to be created with MapSource 6.12.1 or
using the zumo route planner.
* Enhanced off-route recalculation for mixed on/off road routes
and routes with shaping points.
* Added support for new Pre-Recorded voices for Brazil, Bulgaria,
Lithuania, Romania, Serbia.

* Correct shutdown when enter more than 4 vias.
* Correct issue preventing conversion of tracks to routes in
southern hemisphere.
* Correct issue which prevented writing recent tracks to the GPX
file.
* Correct issue which prevented finding points of interest after
search where city was spelled.
* Correct issue which prevented finding some addresses with
overlapping maps.
* Correct issue where a truncated route could contain an erroneous
point.
* Correct issue where a truncated route could be stopped
incorrectly.
* Correct behavior when two Cyclops safety cameras are in range.

70 per cent of features added but significantly, not autozoom off,
auto-recalcuate off or UTM grid

Come on Garmin this is easy to do
Haven't we already paid enough for our zumos ?

Beware many users are having screens lock or go dark after the v3.0
upgrade. I'm waiting until the v3.0 bugs are fixed before I upgrade,
don't want to lock. freeze or corrupt my Zumo. In any case try to
backup your Zumo database/files before you upgrade.

Yep it is a little suprising that when you pan the map screen and then
touch 'go' the unit shuts down.

Maybe if they had issued a beta earlier these problems could have been
found and people would have been more tolerant

So close and yet so far

I find it a bit odd that Garmin took so long to release v3.00,
odd that they did not release a beta earlier,
odd that it has some really obvious shutdown problems and
odd that they have not quickly released a fix for v3.00 (or a least
pulled it from the website).

Feels to me like Marketing are running Garmin right now and not doing
a very good job of it.

Actually, there were around 4 beta versions out there (2.54 was the last I
heard about).

More like the beta testers overlooked it. Garmin probably has another beta
out in the field now (3.01). You might ask them if you could sign on as a
beta tester and see if you can find some more software bugs. There are
probably more than the one.

I heard of at least 2 betas (v2.51 and v2.54) but none of these betas
where available to public users or to garmin distributors outside the
US and Garmin Europe.

I, and many other motivated zumo users, would be very happy to help
with testing.

Thanks but I had it

v3.10 is simply a stable version of v3.00

It does not address the lack of auto-recalcuate off, autozoom off or
UTM grids mentioned earlier
