  1. Hi All! Here is my experience with the lock up problem... My 60CS was always locking up at the same places. Most of the time, a junction between two majors roads. I tried A LOT of possibilities... I use my GPS in the FRENCH language and I own almost every MapSource product that fit in the 60CS (except CN 5). I wrote to Garmin on a weekly basis. Tired of my e-mails, (new versions also introduced very bad translations, which could lead to real problem during navigation in French! They even not fixed the translations (I sent them the corrections), which is not hard to do), they asked me to send back the unit. I received a brand new unit yesterday, still with the lock up problem! My personnal impression, is that the GPS never lock when a page on which no position data are present is showing. Try to let the unit on the menu (any menu) and see what happen what your are driving on the "dark spot"... To me, 60CS has a lock up problem, but Garmin has a "stuck up" problem when they denied the fact a bug exist in their units... Martin, proud owner of a Magellan 1000, the very first civil GPS! (15 min hot start!!!) PS: I live in Quebec. The map was getting similar problem, but the trouble was some french character on map!
