Apologies if I'm piggy-backing onto this thread...
Over the last several years I've used cheap (£45) Chinese 5" tablets loaded with the superb IGo Primo navigation software. At last, with the 590LM, Garmin seemed to have just about caught up with what this budget combination delivered as standard. Despite the 10x price difference I'm seriously tempted but there's quite a few things I'd be keen to learn from 590LM users....
Is it reasonably easy to plan a route directly on the device? It is with IGo Primo.
Can you upload routes planned on an Android?
Is Basecamp compatible with Android devices?
Is the MP3 player sound quality good?
Is there a 'jump link' from the home screen to a configurable 'favourites' list? e.g: to delete last waypoint, access music player, sound levels, change viewpoint etc.
Do you have a selection of day/night map displays to choose from?
Can you choose the amount of audio info (verbosity) spoken?
I've asked Garmin but their responses have been, to be polite, less than satisfactory.
