How do I become a reviewer?

Is there a way to create a new cache within the app?

Does this mean that both CN and Typo can reside on a 4gb microSD ram and be used by the Vista Hcx (2gb each)?

Is MapSource a utility program that comes with the Vista Hcx?

I have a Vista Hcx coming but I'm not quite sure how to load City Navigator® North America NT. I understand you can purchase a microSD with it loaded, but if I buy City Navigator as a download can I upload it into a 4gb microSD and have it work along with Topo, or do you have to run them separately in their own microSD rams? I have a fairly new copy of City Navigator® North America NT and a key that I got with my Nuvi 200. Can that be used with the Vista Hcx? Thanks for your help. Mike-

That's $2.50/mo for an annual subscription. A $300 lifetime subscription would get you $50.00/mo for just six months, unless you have to spread it out over 10 years which would again be $2.50/mo. I'll shut-up now. Mike-

How about a lifetime membership option? Based maybe on 10 years worth of dues and optionally payable over six months. Just a thought.

How does the 2610 compare with the SPIII? Mike-

Garmin V for me and a Streetpilot III for wifey. Map330 as a backup. Mike & Gay Beer nuts cost $1.50. Deer nuts are under a buck.

We love our Garmin StreetPilot III. It calculates a route faster than our GPS V and seems smarter when recalculating (our GPS V tends to route us back to where we went off track, where the SPIII looks ahead for the next best turn). My wife just got back from Kentucky after spending a week there attending a wedding and she used the SPIII to get from the Nashville airport to Glasgow without a hitch. I uploaded all the maps into the SPIII for Tennesse and Kentucky in addition to most of So. California where we live and still had room left in the 128MB memory card. She said the best part was when she and her daughter just took off in the rental car driving all over Kentucky sight seeing and not caring where they were. At the end of the day they just called up the home waypoint on the SPIII and it took them right back to her mother's house. I wouldn't recommend it for geocaching either as the size prohibits using it in hand (but not impossible) but it will get you there none the less. The cigarete lighter power plug contains a suprisingly loud and clear sounding speaker for the voice prompts with a pleasent sounding tone similar to the tone you hear on an airline before the captain talks. A pleasure to use. Mike & Gay Beer nuts cost $1.50. Deer nuts are under a buck.

If so, what do you think of it? Is it backlit? How well can you see the color lcd outdoors? Street level maps? Mike & Gay Beer nuts cost $1.50. Deer nuts are under a buck.

Is there a way to determine when the photos were taken? Mike & Gay Beer nuts cost $1.50. Deer nuts are under a buck.

You're not kidding about the the deafness of those early Garmins. It was questionable if it would lock on at all even with a clear line of sight from here in So. California. Never had the patience to see if it would lock in a half hour so back it went the same day it arrived. Gave up on GPS after that until I came across a MAP 330 whose reception is short of amazing. Next came the GPS V and my wife and I can't live without it. We use it now for both street navigation and caching and although we haven't experenced a loss of lock while driving, it can't compare with the MAP 330 in heavy cover. Still, if we could only have one GPS, the GPS V would be it. Mike & Gay Beer nuts cost $1.50. Deer nuts are under a buck
