transferring garmin favouites

[japcrazed]

I have a Garmin 3790t and I would like to get a new truck sat nav,I have a lot of favourites in my Garmin and stored on my pc under 'gpx file'.

Is it possible to put my favourites onto another brand of sat nav? I am thinking of buying a Snooper S7000 truckmate but if it is not possible I'll be buying a Garmin Dezl to keep my favourites.Anyone done this?

If the snooper is any good it should read a gpx file.
gpx = GPS Exchange Format

This peice of software is worth a look too: tyre

it can read gpx files, load them into Google maps, edit and save, etc.

If you take the GPX file of the Garmin and send it to Snooper, I'm pretty sure they will be able to convert to a suitable file for the S7000.

worth a read: Snooper and POI's

Had a look at the user manual too. Snooper software doesn't look too good tbh
