But you can further assign your Favorites to various Categories, and you can list and name your own Categories as well. So, if I want to go to a particular restaurant I can list it under 'Food' and thus have a short-list only of restaurants.

Hi Nguyen,First of all, thanks for responding to my post.I see what your saying. I agree, they should add a favorites sort by option and that would take care of it.All in all the 265 WT does seem like a pretty cool gps.Rick

I just got the 265WT and wanted make sure that I was missing anything.Thanks for getting back to me.

Regarding Nguyen Pham says:2) Executing "Delete My Favorites" (or something spelled like that) command: In this mode, it sorts favorites alphabetically.Does "deleting my favorites" actually sort favorites alphabetically? Are you or others doing this successfully or do you end up losing your favorites? I don't understand. I have a 265wt just now being shipped from Amazon. Thank you.Jim

Just getting aquainted with my new 265WT received today. Put in several addresses and noticed that they were sorted by distance. Found this discussion when looking for a solution. Seems like a great GPS, but this is really a major negative as far as I am concerned. Hope Garmin has the sense to provide an alphabetic sort in a software revision.

Garmin, in their foolishness, doesn't allow one to sort alphabetically. It's a bummer.

I would have never purchased the Garmin Nuvi 750 had I known that "Favorites" cannot be sorted alphabetically.

Assign favorite entries into categories is definitely the way to go.I've done that all along and found the lists very manageable.

Hi Jim,Sorry for the confusion!Let me try again.When one executes the "Delete My Favorites" (or something spelled like that) command on 265wt, the unit will display all saved favorites in alphabetical order. One can then navigate one's favorite list that way. Deleting a favorite will take at least one or two more "clicks".Hope this clarified it!

Yes, I believe there is a shuffle option as well as an option to manually choose from folders. No, it does not work particularly well. I ended up returning the two I bought because of shoddy construction and the fact that one stopped loading two days after I received them. I ended up buying the Coby mp301-4G player and it seems much more solid for only a few bucks more.

You can, but it still won't play them in any order that I could work out. Not numerical, not in track order. Just some random order.

no, once you choose one that is the one you are in, it doesn't go to the next artist or album in sequence. (And won't skip to a new artist or album even if you shuffle.) The way to include many and various is to create a playlist and then shuffle that if you'd like, so it skips around and mixes it up.

Never tried to shuffle, but, It shows pictures as a slide show in the order on the card. If you wish to change the order you could load on your computer rearrange and put on a flash drive to do so. I use both the memory cards and flash drives for the slide show. Good luck!

Am thinking about buying the Creative Zen and read where someone stated it was hard to bookmark on the SD card. Have you had problems doing this too?He said it was not good for audiobooks. I use my Creative Zen Vision W and iPod only for books and would like to purchase another.....Thanks for any info......

yes! The names appear in an alphabetical order. That is where names are attached to each entry. But if one adds only numbers of streets, which in most cases come before the names of the streets, these street names are equally alphabetically arranged.

The "Shuffle" option plays the exact same playlist each time the Soundfly is powered on. Mine begins with 1638, 1759, 1829, 0603, 0528, 1537, 1534, etc. Is there any way to change this order? It's sad to have over 2000 songs on a 16GB SD card and hear the same songs over and over (and over, and over). I can't believe a product that is excellent in so many ways could be lacking a way to randomize songs. I wouldn't like this with audio books, but for music I would think it's preferred. Thanks!

I think there might be a shuffle setting but it is very difficult to see the name of the songs. Whatever order you have your songs listed in a folder, is the order that they play. I found the interface difficult to navigate. I bought this for my 3yr old and decided to return it.

Sorry to interrupt as i am not the original asker >_< May i know if you have to reposition the cell using your keyboard arrows after scanning one barcode? Or does it automatically jump to the next(down or right) cell? Thanks in advance !:D

It's either plays ALL the songs in alphabetical/numerical order or just one song. There's not a random option. I have it set to play on song only ..... and when I get bored of that song ill make it play another ONE song. Hope this helps. :)

Yes you can search by name in points of interests. Like I said in my review, you can search in points of interest from your current location and in a different location. You can set the city to NYC and search for any points of interest around that area. The thing that bothers me is that it does not categorize the points of interest by category like my Garmin does, but that is a moot point if you are searching by name.

All images are displayed in the order that you load them onto the memory card. So if the portrait is vertical then when it is saved it will be the same. No, it only displays the memory card it has inserted. It will not change to random showing or anything like that. It is a very simple unit. The display is very good. I had another before this one and it would only do random, which is not my preference. I like this unit alot.

yes it has shuffle function. I read some complaints from other viewer saying that it doesn't shuffle all musics when they have a lot of musics in it. For me personally I don't shuffle musics but I create different folders and use folder play depending on the mood. It is totally up to your choice.

When you enter the route you want, the unit will show you one route. You can only change the route by adding way points. I wish it would give you at least one more option to choose from, but this unit doesn't.

Yes, the program will alphabetize in "data table" mode, there is an icon on the top toolbar for alphabetizing. Be sure to save document after you alphabetize. I have it alphabetize re: last name.

Does this device allow you to sort photos or rearrange them the way you want them to be shown? I have similar device right now (that shall remain nameless) that doesn't allow for this. It shows the pictures in its own arbitrary fashion that makes sense only to the device.
