I am unable to download this update. The download constantly stops usually under 1MB and says finished. I was able to download 2 of the 10MB one time. I am having no problems downloading other large files from other sources, and one 2.2MB download from Garmin. Anyone else have this problem, or just my wonderful luck?

PS I live in a rural area, a good connection for me is 26K on a 56K modem. Yes it's a pain.

Maybe I havn't seen it for a 3rd time, but I still do not see Warn mentioned in the FAQ. I checked before I asked.Sagar

What is the Warn % below my name?
Does anyone else see it, or just me?

My wife is not interested so far. She has my daughter most of the time by herself, so this is a chance for us to do something together without Mommy. I think all 3 of us prefer it this way. My wife seems slightly interested, but she avoids tech. (My daughter has been able to use the computer better than Mommy since she was 3 years old)

Yes I am a newb.
My question is this. I have read many posts about problems with the gpsr causing confusing distances and directions as you get close to the cache. I have experienced this and last night I changed to map function. Though the location jumped around a bit, it was much! easier to stay on my intended track to the cache(well almost). I had turned my garmin vista to map at the near lowest zoom. Does anyone else do this? What is the collective wisdom on the subject?
By the way, I had a fixed reference point ( a lake) so telling the correct direction was easy.
P.S. Didn't find the cache
Like I said, it was night, deep woods and Skategirl was a little uncomfortable since Sagar forgot his flashlight. I had to carry her out. (She is 6) -
Gotta be a lurker since this is my first post. Also a newby since when I tried to leave a message on another topic... took me 10 to figure out how to log in. Enjoying everything so far. Gotta think of a quote though...

Thanks. It probably is my connection, but I was wondering if other were having the same problem because everyone is downloading.
Now I have to find someone with broadband and a burner... Guess I will have to hit my "boss" up for a favor.
