Even though the pros and cons on this subject are interesting: wouldn't it be far more interesting to hear from Groundspeak what's on their agenda? I'm happy to join in guessing but how about a simple update on the gpx schema update? Hello Moun10bike - any news?

On my iPad cache descriptions were shown within PQs - until yesterday. Display all PQs, select one and then select a cache on the map. No awesome approach but oh well. Today it does not work any more... Not with Safari, not Mercury, not after deleting cookies, emptying cache, ... Now GC.com on the iPad is completely useless for searching and viewing caches on a map. This is really poor, guys! And since it seems impossible to enhance the GC app to iPad, I always have to create PQs (limit: 500 caches per PQ, 5 PQs per day!!), download them and import into another (asynchronous) app. Is this supposed to be the best you can do? I have been following this discussion since February 14th and kept my feet still, hoping for a visible effort to resolve these issues. So far nothing really is in sight, so probably more people have to chime in to make clear that this is not acceptable? We are not talking about a small minority but about all mayor mobile platforms! Do something to show you really give it a hard effort! Raise the limit of caches per PQ or PQs per day until you get it to work. Or port the app to the iPad and I will happily delete the GC favorite from mobile Safari. You get less expensive and less complex apps working on iPhone and iPad from smaller companies or organizations. Or (my favorite) get this Java thing fixed soon if you want to stay competitive.

Give GPS Utility a try. It's Windows, but reads/writes Garmin (gdb) files and merges files. http://www.gpsu.co.uk/
