Ok, I figured it out. I'll share so others can know how to do it. 1) Create the Pocket Query to get the .GPX file. 2) Convert the .GPX file to a cache folder using GPX Spinner (http://www.gpxspinner.com/) 3) Use Calibre (http://calibre-ebook.com/) to convert the index.htm file inside the cache folder to Epub format 4) Use Caibre to transfer it to the Nook. The book will now show up on the Nook. You can use the navigation arrows to select hyperlinks to jump from the index to the cache you're interested in.

I've been doing paperless geocaching using my Palm Treo to store the Cache Descriptions for reference (using GPX Spinner & Plucker). Now I've just gotten a Barnes & Noble Nook. With aging eyes, it would be nice to have a larger display (aka. the Nook) to see the Cache Description on versus the Palm Treo's tiny screen! Is there some automated software (I don't want to have to print to PDF each Cache description individually) that would allow me to get the 500 Cache descriptions from my Geocache Pocket Query into an ebook format my Nook could read? According to the specs, the Nook can handle: * EPUB (including Non or Adobe DRM) * PDB * PDF * Graphics: JPG, GIF, PNG, BMP * Audio: MP3 Not Supported: DOC, LIT, TXT, AMZ (Amazon), LRZ/LRX (Sony) Thanks!

I'm trying to install the Garmin Communicator Plugin. Lastest version on the Garmin website is 2.5.1 which just was put out there on 5/1/08. I can download it fine, but when I go to install it, I get a windows error: InstallGarminCommunicatorPlugin_251.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience. I've tried downloading again - same thing. I've rebooted and tried installing again - same thing. I've tried searching all over for an older version - no luck. Does anyone have a 2.4.1 version that they can share? (astalosc@gmail.com) So I can download waypoints to go geocaching on Mother's Day with my new Garmin Extrex Vista HCx. (Happy Mother's Day to me!) Thanks, Coleen
