AND...even more Zumo Information...OUCH on 4gb cards

[RazorbikerVTX]

Actually maybe not OUCH...Chet just says that the biggest card they have tested (and support) is the 2GB...a 4GB card may or may not work. :shock:

************************************************** ************
Here are the questions Chet answered today (Nov 2).

Here are a few easy zumo 550 questions that have been asked lately as well:

Q: Does the zumo 550 have an audio jack, or do you just connect via bluetooth?

A: The zumo 550 mount (both automotive and motorcycle) has an audio output jack and a microphone input jack. Audio can be sent out using those or through Bluetooth.



Q: Chet, is there a SD card capacity limitation in the Zumo 550, or it can handle any size (2MB, 4MB)?

A: Right now, the largest card that has been tested with the zumo 550 is 2GB. Larger cards may be deemed compatible in the future.



Q: What is the capacity of the mp3 player in the zumo 550?

A: At this time, the zumo 550 can hold up to 500 mp3 files.

Okay, that's it for today but I will be back on Tuesday with more answers. Again, if you have any questions for me, please feel free to post them in the Comments.

I just bought the Nuvi 660 which is the exact same technology as the Zumo and have put a 4GB card in it. It works perfectly fine. I have about 600 MP3's on it so far and it is about half-filled. That means I'll be able to put about 100 CD's (1,200 MP3s) on it! And this is NOT even counting the INTERNAL memory of the Nuvi which might yield another 400 or so....

So I'VE tested this on the Nuvi -- I don't see why the Zumo would be any different or wouldn't recognize a 4GB card just as easily as it would a 2GB or 512MB card. So thanks for the thoughts but I'm sure it will be fine.
