Dear Garmin,
In your infinite wisdom why do you mess with our minds
?
Why do you name your GPS models the same across different industries? It can get confusing especially when searching for this stuff on your phone.
Examples :
I want to search for Garmin G5 software version:
This is what I find while in the airplane / hanger using my phone: http://www8.garmin.com/support/download_details.jsp?id=4419
When in fact this is for another Garmin G5 for Golf GPS https://buy.garmin.com/en-US/US/p/31070
THIS is what I need to find the first time. Close one
Or when searching for Garmin 660, I'm hoping to find this https://buy.garmin.com/en-US/US/p/520775
But could get confused by these :
https://buy.garmin.com/en-US/US/p/15000
or
https://buy.garmin.com/en-US/US/p/31946
I know, I know it my fault and I should know better than to just search for a model number and not the entire name and number.
Just giving you all some constructive criticism. Surely you can't run out of model numbers . Maybe the Aviation G5 should have been called the GA5 or something completely different than a Golf GPS model number
