Content Protection for Removable Media (CPRM) is a hardware-based technology designed to enforce copy protection restrictions through built-in mechanisms in storage media that would prevent unauthorized file copying.
Based on a technology called broadcast encryption that was developed by Amos Fiat and Moni Naar in 1993, the CPRM system would be used to incorporate digital tags into storage media, such as recordable CDs (CD-R, CD-RW) and flash memory cards for MP3 players.
CPRM was developed by 4C Entity, an industry consortium originally made up of Intel, IBM, Matsushita, and Toshiba. The system has been highly controversial, because it could be used not only with removable media, but as a part of every new hard drive produced as well. Technical Committee T13 (a coalition of companies that produce both flash memory and hard drives) considered adopting CPRM as an industry standard, but has since given approval to an alternative plan in development at Phoenix Technologies that would be used for other purposes - such as security mechanisms on removable media - in addition to copy protection.

I same across a link for a Taiwanese version of Nuvi... the main differences is that it can display Chinese characters and TTS in Mandarin, Hokkien, Hakka and other local dialects...
I know that all the TTS files are copyable in the main Nuvi memory.. only problem is that ours only come with the European variant...
Any one who knows someone who has the Taiwanese Nuvi can help to ask for a copy of those Asian TTS voice files?

i confirm with some in this trade, the SD may be CPRM by Garmin. means Contents protection of removeable media. there is no way of cracking it. save the effort la...no more fun!

On ICE, 12" definitely will sound deeper than 10", but 12" also takes more space. I am happy with my 2 10"s, they don't take up a lot of space, and the bass is good enough for me. In ICE, its not all how good the individual equipment is, but more on how they are being installed and tuned. The cook must know how to do the dishes, no point having all the freshest seafood but he can't cook.
Tony, get 6.5", mount the subwoofer, keep the 701 and use my 701 setting.
