    Just got my new 2013 III and learning the NAV system. Does anyone know if it is possible to enter GPS coordinates thru a vCard or other electronic method? I have hundreds of waypoints from my hiking hand-held Garmin and would like to transfer several. I know I can enter them manually, but it's a real job! Can't find anything about automatic transfer on web so may not be possible.

    Also, can I test the NAV and audio systems while parked without running down the battery if I leave it in READY mode? Is that the best way? As you know, many of the functions can't be done while driving.

    Thanks for your input. (BTW this is my second Prius - I traded in my 2010 II for it)

    The only way I found so far to input addresses externally and send them to the Prius is to use the Entune app which is dumb.
