Have you thought about buying another 550 to clone to yours. No idea if that'll work / disable your lifetime maps!
If this is a possible fix (cloning) I have a 550 that you could use as a donor unit. Mine has older maps etc but if it could help, you would be welcome to borrow it. Just a thought.

Re: Wired / Wireless Intercoms?

If you should decide to go for the Autocom option, give this dealer a call. He's the guy I bought my BT set-up from and he was pretty good when I said I wanted to return it. I lost money on it but I had modified the C3 upgrade headsets :shock:

Re: Planned routes

I have found that if you use any program other than basecamp then the results can be a bit random!
