Messaging through a nuvi isn't supported on the Kenwoods, anyway. You
can still message on the Kenwood itself, which is tedious but doable.
I've used my D7 for messaging more than anything else. Mostly for
commanding T2s.
Unfortunately the D7 doesn't put out any symbol or comment data, so the
GTRANS doesn't have much to work with. The GTRANS could generate
direction and distance information, but it'd only be updated when the
waypoint (favorite) is created, which wouldn't be terribly useful if
you're moving.
