Garmin Nuvi 2408 LT-D satnav
Can anyone tell me what this slot in the bottom edge is for, please?
I did not get a lead with this size plug on it... only the one to connect it to the power in the car, and the usb on the laptop... ( using the other slot on the back of the satnav underneath the word Garmin ).
Fixed! Go to the fix.

I would have thought it would explain the various ports in the instruction book. Have you tried on Garmin web-site?
Ooooops, browni beat me to it.

My Garmin 2598 has the same slot in which I have a 32GB Micro SD memory card.

Not having a Garmin satnav, I thought it might help you if I suggested a possibility. Hence the question mark. I appreciate that these days a lot of electronic gadgets don't have a detailed manual included unless you look on-line.

OK... thanks guys... having had a look at the on line manual... it says... " push the memory card into the slot until it clicks"..
Doesn`t say where the slot is... but... hey... gotta be intelligent about this, haven`t we ! ! ! ! ..

Sounds like it.
My old TomTom had one, presumably if you wanted to download more maps etc. than the device can hold in its internal memory, the idea I believe is you can whack a card into it to boost what it can store.
Had to buy a new TomTom as my older one would only support the old SD cards (nothing else SD above that) and wouldn't support new maps. Even with the biggest standard SD card. TomTom even e-mailed later to say that. So just got a new one from Argos. Shame as I liked the old one but obsolete now.
