Remove satellite imagery from g3 vision bluecharts

Hi everybody,
a couple of years ago, I managed it (somehow), to remove the satellite pictures from the bluechart vision files for my GPSmap64.

merge it again.
Does anybody know in detail, how to do it?
Thanks in advance!

Thing is, when using the nuvi, it is very slow to load the map - to "draw" the map in the screen, if that makes sense, not the initial load. I moved the map ...

choosing an old but reliable Garmin

Hi
I have been using Tomtom satnavs for a while but I want to try a Garmin.
Can someone suggest an older model from a couple of years ago that I can pickup on ebay at a reasonable price that is reliable and could be updated using this website?
Any suggestions welcome
Thanks
