Thanks!

You can also get a Free 14 day demo for iG 4.0. (It will cost you around $5 for shipping). If you decide you like it, you can purchase the license on line, and not have to pay another shipping charge, and you will be able to activate it immediately.

This is possible, but not that reliable. If I search for a "Target" store, I get a list, and the first one in the list is like 38 miles away, when there is ons just a little over a mile from my house. When you know the area, this isnt so bad, as you can recognise some of the streets, and nav to that one. In an unfamiliar area, it is hit and miss at best.

I explained this to iGuidance, and this was their reply:

Hi John:
Currently, you only have choice of either searching by name (in alphabetical order) or by distance (in order of closest distance). It's our goal to add a 3rd option to enable users to search by name + closest distance combined. However, it didn't get on our project schedule for this year's map upgrade, and we hope to have that for next year's release.

We apologize for the inconvenience.

This means it will not be available for at least another year or so

MGD,

Could you please screen shot all the steps to get to where it shows search for poi. Because i have tried both my girl and I have tried to search for things but it only gives you by name or by distance. Not sure how you got the starbucks to come up?

Thanks dude!

Phil

Hi... first off... GREAT JOB JOHN! Love it!

I installed the iGuidance 4 UMPC patch but it seems that the menu still looks like the original iGuidance skin. Am I missing something here?? Isnt it supposed to look like DFX? Thanks!

**Blue ZX3** · 05-01-2008, 08:39 PM

No, one thing that the patch does change is that it re-adds the ability to navigate to a destination by using coords(which is needed for the nav to chosen gas station feaure), which iG took out on the last two versions, any other changes I'm not sure of...

**JohnWPB** · 05-01-2008, 10:02 PM

Yea, graphically there are no changes this time. It is just altered to allow traversing the menu's with scripts, and to re-add the coordinates that iNav removed a couple versions ago.

It would be hard to skin it this time to match DFX, as the skin can be any color now.

LOL... thanks John... I thought I was going crazy... I kept downloading and overwriting the file thinking I did something wrong.

**funkyphil** · 05-01-2008, 11:13 PM

Hello Peeps,

Ok here is a DFX question, is there a way i can edit the net radio buttons to set my own net radio? Example I want to press B96 and have their listen live website start playing.

Thanks Folks.

John i cant get the Hdradio to display the song info on the main screen it just shows the mp3 info. sirius works fine tho.

I have noticed that right before you come to your next turn, and the screen zooms in, it will say "iguidance". It is really annoying to hear your music, "turn left onto 159", and "iguiance" all at the same time. The only time this seems to happen is when it is doing the automatic zoom in right before a turn. Any ideas ???
