I use gps filedepot for maps and software on my Etrex 20. Everything you need to know is on their site. Here is a link http://www.gpsfiledepot.com/

Exchanged card and new card works fine. Now to load maps Thanks again!

Ok, I installed the micro card into a adapter then into my card reader. As soon as I plugged in the reader into my pc I started smelling electrical burning and then smoke. Keep in mind this is all in about 5 seconds. I removed it all and the adapter is starting to melt! Im off to exchange or purchase another card. Ill post up an update in a couple of hours. Thanks for the help!

A update. I just took the 512 MB Microsd card out of my DroidX and installed it into the Etrex 20. The unit turns on, I can even view the pics on my card(from the phone) and the pics of Geocaches that I have savedon the Etrex 20.Next I installed the 8GB into the phone and it tells me to install a SD card before taking a picture. Hmmm... Bad card???

Thanks for the reply. I am new to caching and this is my first handheld. What or where do I check?

My etrex 20 wont turn on with a Sandisk 8GB microSDHC card installed. Pull the card out and it works fine. Before purchasing a card, I called Garmin and asked what type of card they recomend. The techs response was- any card up to 16 GB, any manufacturer, as long as its NOT a HD card. I asked if the SDHC would be ok and he said yes, make sure its not high definition. Anyone else having a issue?

We also use them for offroad racing. You can prerun the course and mark all the hazards and plot your course. Some of the race vehicles have 2 installed. The co-rider watches the gps while racing and tells the driver where to go and of any hazards. Also, if you happen to have an issue and need assistance, radio your coordinates to the chase crew and they will come.

Looking for maps for my new Garmin etrex 20. Who has the best deal on them?

I have been using mine for 4 days now, very easy to view in the sunlight.
