Let me start by saying that I'm 64 yrs old and still learning. I did finally get the b@lls to plug it in and guess what, it works fine. I just want to say thanks to everyone who tried to help me.

I know I sound paranoid, and I know the plugs are the same. What concerns me is the voltage coming from that 12v cig lighter. What reduces it to 5v? I know the PC does it, but this thing looks just like any cig plug adapter. Thanks again.
Do it all the time, didn't even give it a second thought.
I checked Motorola website and couldn't find the info I need, but I'm going to Verizon and see if they can tell me. Thanks to all.
I have an older version of City Nav. that I use on my 2610 Streetpilot. I just bought a handheld Etrex. When I tried to load the maps it wouldn't work so I called Garmin support and they emailed me a new unlock code for my Vista HCX.

I read somewhere that you can use a cell phone USB car power cord on a new style Garmin with USB port. Can anyone positively verify this. I hate to plug it in and ruin a brand new unit. By the way it's a Etrex Vista HCX. Thanks in advance for your help.
