Can not calculate a route ERROR Garmin DriveSmart 50

Hi everyone,

need your help.

I have a standard Garmin Drivesmart 50. When I try to calculate a route from (for example) my House to a city approx 300kms away, it says "can not calculate the route". I have tried to calculate the same route via Trip Planner (via add point on Map) and same error.

I have done some research and everyone is saying that it is not possible to patch this device so I guess that the only way to get EU maps is to buy them.

Nuvi 1370 takes longer to start-up with power cable

When I start-up my Nuvi 1370 using its internal battery it starts in less than ten seconds.

Though when the power cable is connected to the Nuvi and car power it takes upwards of thirty seconds to start.

Why is this?
