Installed iGo Primo 2 today... I must say it's a pretty slick program and looks and feels more modern compared to (what I thought was a very nice) iGo8 software.
Nice to have the arrows in POI search result list again.
Still learning the program, but a couple of things that bugged me about it though... Is there a quick way to get to the POI name search screen from the map screen? As far as I can tell I have to press like 5 different buttons before getting to it.
Also, and this may be due to non-ideal hardware, but there's quite a bit of lag when entering addresses, especially the street name. I know it's loading up all the street names to do that nice autofill feature as you're entering, but the lag is bothersome.
One final thing, is there a way to get the clock back into the map screen? Since we flyaudioers don't have the OEM clock anymore, it was nice to have the clock displayed on iGo8. On Primo2, it only shows the clock in menu screens.

Thanks though. But it still doesn't show the clock when it's navigating. When navigating it has the option to show km to destination, time to destination, and estimated time when reached destination. But not current time.Also, with iGo8, someone a long time ago figured out how to make it default to the map screen when the program starts. Anyone know how to do it on Primo 2?

Tip: If you want just the clock in view, click on the clock and the other fields will leave.
As for the straight-to-map feature, I think it's under the additional settings menu on the start screen. My skin is the default and the menu selection looks like a pink beaker at the bottom. Under there is a setting that says something like, "Skip start screen".

You could use it for the first generation, but I would recommend turning off the 3D features and limiting the map area. The more maps, the longer it takes to load.
Primo 1.2 is more resource friendly and has most of the features of Primo 2.
You can also try adding the following to your sys.txt.
It limits the memory usage of the iGo software and is the same code for both versions of Primo.

I have tried everything yet the card reader still fail, honestly now I think it is best just use all other function rather than the gps. Get a garmin or something to replace it... Cheaper option IMO

I just upgraded the firmware on my unit to 2.0.0.1 to fix the incorrect temperature on climate control [it was showing temperatures at about 30 degrees higher than what it was supposed to be] but now the temperature is in Celsius. WTF? Is there a setting somewhere to change it to Fahrenheit
