  1. I spent an hour on the phone with Garmin this morning. He did the take over control of my computer thing and checked out everything on my Garmin and my computer with reference to geocaching. He said everything checked out ok, so the problem must be with geocaching.com. He said he'd escalate the problem to his higherups so they could contact geocaching and let them know there's a problem. They have a direct connect of some sort. He was able to download a cache to the unit by going to the cache page, saving it to my desktop as a .loc file, then using my mapsource and downloading it to the unit. It was a pain and a lot of extra steps, but doable if necessary. I downloaded some caches as waypoints last night by entering coordinates manually, but also a pain. Hope they get it up and running soon.
  2. I don't think the rubber coming off is an issue unless you mistreat the unit - leaving it on your dashboard on a 90 degree day, mishandling it, etc. I've had my Venture HC for 10 months now and it still looks like new. I use a neoprene window case with a caribiner for my cache hunts and that seems to protect it very well. We just bought a Venture HC and found that it only has a basic freeway map and doesn't seem to be able to download a street level type map. Advice? I'm ready to return it and we haven't even used it.
