All right! There's been a few days now that I'm playing with the 3490 UI. A few features from the 3790 are lost, yes, but overall there's no way you should regret the upgrade. I can't tell if there's a loss of map detail as it is something I'm not able to judge due to my area not being awarded by Garmin for all the features my across the border neighbours enjoy (for what I read). Also, I can't tell anything regarding traffic coverage - all seems the same and I didn't buy yet the GMT60 to test for better coverage. So far the only cons I report are the fact that the responsiveness to the touch isn't so instant as before, I mean looks like that one has to re-touch the screen to select the option. I remember this was something I found awesome in the old UI, fast response. Could be my impression, though, as all this happens more while driving so I guess that I'm trying to pay more attention to driving that precision touch. Don't do it often, still I don't recall happening before. Another con has nothing to do with the hardware or software. My voice command still doesn't work for "find Places", "find intersection" and "find address". I'm presented with "this feature is not available for Canada in American English". Now either I fix it, don't bother or use a truck-load of rust-off on my «parler français» lol. I'll seek for help to fix it for sure.
Everything else is good, great, awesome, fantastic!! And the info we get is either more detailed or better shown. Once again I gratefully thank all of you that made this convert possible as it's wayyyy rewarding compared to buying a new 3490!

To have them working you must have ASR ,SID Fast Routing ,SID Instasearch ,SID AddressSearch ,DB CountryStateSearch specific for 34xx, 37xx ones wont work. 34xx structure is different no G2S folder in 34xx, there is SID folder instead. In 37xx position looks a bit more precise , I cant find any difference in touch,check if you have the latest touch panel soft

On the contrary I find 34xx more responsive and faster in drawing the map, I got new features adding *.xml files attached in post n1 and from 34xx firmware ,but I cant add a new destination as a VIA point in a calculated route: this is possible in 37xx
You have to navigate to get to the good.

...or do you mean something different?
