Is there any other type of voice files that I could try? Would the ones created in the voice studio work?.........

Well, at least it appears that adding an incompatible voice file doesn't cause any problems so you can keep trying anything else out. As far as i'm aware, any voice files created in VoiceStudio will work in all Garmin Nuvis (except 3xx/6xx), Zumo 660 and all Aeras so compatibility is quite broad. I'd have some fun and record your own voice (or better still, Eva Longoria, Sofia Vergara, Selma Hayek..... if you can kidnap one of them, that is).

I can't find any other South American or Mexican Spanish non-TTS voices anywhere, sorry. Doesn't mean there aren't any, though.

Good question. How do you update the fw on that thing Diego? Do you have to dl new fw updates onto your oem sd?
