    There's actually a forum dedicated to GPS under the tech>consumer electronic forum.

    Probably a better chance of resolving your problem there OP.

    Sorry - got a bit carried away there.
    Try this:

    1. Press TOOLS (the spanner symbol in the bottom right corner of the page that shows WHERE TO and VIEW MAP
    2. Press SETTINGS (the spanner symbol) or LOCALE on models that don't have SETTINGS
    3. Press LANGUAGE (The lips symbol)
    This brings you to a page with 3 items. VOICE, TEXT LANGUAGE and KEYBOARD
    To change the VOICE to an English speaking voice press VOICE and select an English voice.
    To change the TEXT LANGUAGE to english press TEXT LANGUAGE and select English.
