    Any help would be appreciated regarding the difference between the new 200 line with the 350 would be helpful. Thanks,

    Hello,
    I bought the Garmin 250 (European Mapping) and having a big problem. The GPS shows me that there's not enough memory to calculate my routes. For example even from west of England to Germany I can't get a direction... Could you, please, tell me why? What should I do then? Is there like a distance (let's say 800 km?) when the unit doesnn't work after? Thank you
