Great idea, I'll put a map on the sd card!

We are touring in France, 2 days ago after a coffee I tried to turn the zumo back on but it didn't respond, I pulled and refitted the battery, it powered up and said maps updated.... It completely screwed the maps, France no longer existed! We used a map to travel the next 120 miles to our hotel ...

cheers

The 550 did have an occasional bad habit of detaching from its mounting bracket but I bought a spring clip that stopped this can anyone advise if the 595 bracket needs a "precaution" to stop detaching from the holder and having to wave by by at speed?

As the title says, do you think I would be better buying a screen protector or it strong enough on its own?

Great idea, just ordered one Just need to find a screen protector now and all is ready

Did you get the mapping problem sorted?

thanks for the tip
