Out of the frying pan
... Does the 550 support SDHC (SD High Capacity) format memory cards, with potential 8GB capacity?

... Or is it strictly limited to 'base' SD cards, max 2GB?

... Or should I be asking a different question?


... FWIW The Garmin web-site only lists SD 'base' format cards as factory supplied accessories
 
Most peeps I know are using 4Gb cards. There's not much point using an 8Gb as it can only recognise 1000 tracks, which should leave plenty of space on a 4Gb.

No problem with the 8GB card - that's what I use.:thumb2
 
8gb HCSD card for me too. All the music, plus US mapping on one card leaving Euro mapping on the unit. Plenty fo space for loads of routes too.

Cheap as chips at the 7 day shop. :thumb
