To take this in a different direction, what if Geocaching or some of the web sites included closest highway number and exit numbers as part of the info when you post a new cache? You could search for the interstate you're on, and then just look at the exit numbers near where you'll be traveling. It would at least tell you where to get off the highway, but would require changes to GeoCaching.com and probably other sites as well. Just a thought.

Not sure if this is related, but I saw on the Garmin site that some software revisions fixed issues with spontaneous shutdowns. You might want to make sure you have the latest firmware installed in your unit.

I just bought a Garmin Legend, and would love to get a little more detail than the basemap provides. I don't want to spend more for the Mapsource software than I did for the actual GPS though. Is there an alternative to Mapsource for getting a detailed map into my Legend? I do have Street Atlas USA 2004, and would love to get some of those maps in the GPS. Is that at all possible, or just a pipe dream? Also, I have seen Mapsource software offered on Ebay, but the Garmin site indicates some of it might need "unlocked". Is it safe to buy the used software, or might I end up with something I can't actually use because I'm missing an unlock key? Would the key have to be given to me along with the software? OK, enough questions for one post. Thanks! --DiTTo
