I also have a new 60CS. It is my understanding that if you setup a goto a address and then go a different way (e.g. to avoid a road under construction), it will update the route as you go for the most direct way relative to where you are. Can someone verify that?

The City Select North America 7.0 update DVD is back up on Garmin's website. http://www.garmin.com/unlock/update.jsp

I have upgraded from a Legend to a 60CS and have a question about the backlight given that I plan to use the unit strictly with batteries. With the use of the Legend, the backlight is only activated when the power button is pressed - it stays on for the length of a setting. To use it again, one simply presses the power button again. For the 60CS, it appears that once I turn on the backlight with the power button, everytime I press any button on the unit, it will come on for the set duration until I deactivate the backlight by use of the power button again. Do I have this right? I really only want the backlight to come on the one time when I press the power button. I am worried that if I don't deactivate the backlight after use and subsequently use it during the day, I will be inadertantly turing on the backlight and wasting power everytime I press a button on the unit.

I contacted Garmin over the weekend regarding getting the free update as I unlocked last Thursday. They said I was eligible and to keep watching their site for the V7.0 offering.

I am unable to perform searches with more than one key word - I get an error. Is there some special syntax in perfoming these types of searches? bholzman
