Can anyone tell me if the 510 has the same turn by turn directions that the 500 has? On my 500, if I follow a course I get 3 pages including the profile with ghost rider, breadcrumb course and list of turn by turn directions. The 510 manual mentions none of this except the breadcrumb course and I've found the list of turns far more helpful when following new routes than the breadcrumb trail.

    If it's a feature on the 500, I can't possibly see it not being included on the updated 510.

    I thought so too, but the website and manual don't make it clear either way.

    There's a couple of screenshots over on the Garmin 510 forums if anyone is interested. It looks like you still get a list of directions but creating them is a bit more hassle as it doesn't accept tcx files anymore.

    However, a quick browse through the other posts shows a lot of people suffering bt and ant+ drop outs. I know forum posts always focus on the problems more than the successes but it looks like it might be worth waiting to see how/if Garmin sort this out.
