  1. It seems it is more like a personal organizer than a PDA. As it seems to use it's own software it looks like you have to use that. According to the product description of the manufacturer's site there is a memo function. If it can be synchronised with the PC copy paste of the cache description from the cache page to the desktop memo application and synchronising it to the organizer might help. Passwords might be recorded on site with a similar way. Other than that picture synch or other features might not necessarily be available. I'd recommend a Palm product if this is not sufficient for you.
  2. Garmin Etrex Vista (bought a while back, now it's available at a rather friendly price) Garmin bike mount for Etrex GPSRs (around 31 USD) Palm Tungsten E2 (was around 300 USD equivalent those days)+ 512M SD card (given away lately, text and pictures are synchronised to the card) EasyGPS (direct waypoint downloading to the Vista from Web and managing wps and routes, free) OpenOffice.org (free office software, text conversion/compression to the palm doc format, very space friendly- text can be viewed on palm with any Doc Reader, many of them free or free to try) Palm Media (bundled with Palm, for viewing pictures on palm) Google Earth (excellent tool, but I use it very rarely)
  3. At http://terkep.t-online.hu/ you find an accurate electronic map of Hungary with all the intersections of Budapest for your convenience and calibration. Another map is here with all the geocaches of Hungary: http://www.geocaching.hu/maps.geo?id=aeromap This only provides coordinates indirectly through caches.
  4. Or you can see all 1300 here. There is a healthy GC community in Hungary and a plenty of caches, around 1/3 of them listed in geocaching.com . You can use a very practical site at geocaching.hu with regional maps, forums, unfortunately all in Hungarian . As we have our forums, Hungarians are scarce here and it might be only the third time I look here, but there are quite a couple of users using the geocaching.com too.
  5. It is good to hear that the TB is found. (Ironically, I just found a TB that got to Hungary from Japan in a similarly mysterious way. ) Should any of you have any problem with a TB that is probably lost in Hungary, I encourage you to make a post about it in the forums of www.geocaching.hu focusing on lost TBs in the following URL: http://www.geocaching.hu/forum.geo?id=travelbug (follow "új hozzászólás" that is a post reply. The language is Hungarian, but you will be understood there by most users.). There is a group there dedicated to systematically recover all lost TBs possible. You can also look at an incomplete, but expanding TB listing here: http://www.geocaching.hu/poi.geo?type=travelbug
