Defamation
Google define what they mean by Defamation on their help page:
Google Blogger is a tool to allow Internet users to provide content and comment on what they find in life.
Comments, negative or otherwise, are the corner stone of free speech. If you cannot comment on what you perceive as dubious practice then it is a form of censorship. Just because someone has made a negative comment about you it does not mean that the person is defaming or slandering you.
Defamation and the Catholic Church
Apparently the act of defamation is different here. You cannot claim that the truth is a reason that you can defame a Catholic priest. If you accuse a priest of Pedophilia, and it is true, it is still defamation according to the church. This is according to Canon Law - if you are not a Catholic priest then you have to prove that what is said about you is untrue to claim that someone is defaming you.

The chipset in the Nüvi 3790T, 3790MLT, 3760T and 3750 are unknown at present.

Firmware update that provides MP3 capability for units that didn't have it factory installed
As far as I know there is no such thing as a firmware update that will allow a GPS that uses .wav files for its alarms (possibly through custom POI's) to be able to use MP3 files.
If MP3 files are converted to .wav format, and there are a lot of utilities to do this, they could be used for alarms. However, the ability to play MP3 files in their native form would require an MP3 player - this is not likely to be installed with a firmware update.
Currently, September 2009, the current Garmin line of GPS that have an MP3 player are the 7** series - including the 765T. The 2** 5** and the new 1200/1300/1400 series DO NOT - this includes the 255W, 1370T and 1250.

Mapsource for Windows 7 - Garmin
Using Garmin MapSource
Not that tells you on the box you bought your Nüvi - MapSource is the Garmin program that runs on your PC with which you can enter, POI and Routes.
You will only get a copy of MapSource if the map pre-installed in your Garmin is eligible for a free update.
You can use MapSource to unlock maps and send them to your GPS - to do this you will need to have the 25 digit "unlock" code.
