yes, it is....have fun with it.
Ok Ok! This may sound stupid.... So I just,

1. Slot in the new SD card I bought into Nuvi
2. Connect Nuvi to PC
3. Copy/Paste into SD card in Windows Explorer
4. Disconnect from PC and then Power Up Nuvi

This should work rite?

By the way, I dont seem to be able to find Singapore when setting default region on the nuvi; I set it to Hong Kong!

nabei! you muz have got the Wing Flaps option! faster than mine. I noticed a cigarette charger.Does it come with the nuvi as standard?
Remember don't charge your Nuvi with the cigarette lighter adaptor. PML will void your warranty.

I think there is something wrong with my nuvi's SD expansion slot. My PC seems to be able to detect but is unable to display the SD card on Windows Explorer.

the card should be self detect. remove the card, connect the nuvi into your computer usb. then insert the SD card, see anything happen? if should detect a new drive...eg. K:

My Nuvi 360 was molested at Customs but it has maintained its innocence and just arrived at my home 10mins ago!!!

I have never felt so happy receiving a gadget... I almost cried! :'(

Here are the pictures for all to admire its size... the WOW factor is simply too great!

It even makes my Blackberry 7290 look obese...
Can you charge your Nuvi 360 with your SLK's cigarette lighter socket without voiding its warranty?

LMK, as mentioned... PC detects SD card but cannot display it on Windows Explorer! See screen shot. I tried reading and writing on the SD Card via other media reader and it is ok.
