  1. All paid up and waiting patiently!!! All going well, I will have these and some of my Team Geocaching Jersey's with me at GW6 for trade/sale!
  2. OOOOooo.... Will we be able to order and have those shipped with our guitar orders?!?
  3. I'll be in on this one too, just overwhelmed by the colour choices!!! Need to find time to sit down and work it out.
  4. Got my set ordered this morning too!!!
  5. I'm up for either a purchase or a trade when you get yourself organized! I love the V.1 coin!
  6. Congrats Pittsburgh! A bit to far for me to make the trek when I'm already road tripping to GeoWoodstock and hopefully making the trip to Rendez-vous Quebec too... maybe next year!
  7. I 2nd this !!! I concur!!! I like this choice, 8 hr drive.... I could do this. Great choice for me! Only 2 hour drive! Closer then the GCF I just got! I'm in for SLC too!!!
  8. What problems are you having with Cachemate? It works very well for me, and the programs (GSAK and Cachemate) were brand new to me when I started with them. Well for one ... you have to pop the file into this other file then you have to slice and dice it then you have to send it to cachemate before you upload it .... its very cumbersome , and on top of it when you need to search for information on ones pda you come up short .. like in having the last 3 logs available to you on top of figuring out just what you need to click on to get any kind of information aside from the cache name. I find it a bit difficult to use , and lacking information , on top of it now one has to have 2 programs to do what one would do with the file that gc.com used to provide for us. Its like you have to stand on your head and tilt yer left foot this way , and presto you have acheived some sort of limited information . Mobi for me and my clie was extremely easy to use . I could search by gc number or cache name . I knew where to find hints when I opened up a page for viewing it was all there the discription to the latest 3 logs . I understand that change is sometimes difficult but geeeesh ... going paperless this way may not be so practical . You have to understand some of us are just tech. impaired ... and not tech geeks. I was teaching my elderly neighbor how to use mobi which she was getting used to ... now this , I just dont think I can even begin to show her how cachemate with gsak would work her head would explode ! Star Cachemate gives you the past 5 logs, same as Mobi did, you just have to scroll down on the past logs page. Also gives you room to make your own notes, plus if needed the hint is right there, you don't have to search a separate appendix for it by waypoint name... May not be pretty, but is way more functional that Mobi ever was!
  9. #38 the "other goalie" (back up to beaver dude?) is ready to go! GT if we manage to cross paths around here I'm willing to trade!
  10. Have to agree with many on here, I'm now wondering why I bothered with MobiPocket and didn't just listen to the friends that recommended GSAK & CacheMate... Am completely satisfied with the product! Also have to say, that I also felt renewing my Premium Membership was well worth supporting my hobby!
  11. After the test weekend with cachemate, 17 caches in 2 days... I won't be going back to MobiPocket unless there are some significant improvements... the easy way is not always the best way! I love the versatility of cachemate and the ease of having the description and hints in the same place, not having to jump between the appendix and the table of contents. I wish I had known about this before I upgraded my palm to one that would easily run Mobipocket
  12. After the initial shock and anger of not being able to use the familiar easy way wore off and I started looking around at the options, I have to say, CacheMate looks like the winner for me! Way easier to find a cache quickly, if you want it the hint is right there rather than have to hunt through the appendix. Even though I have posted my comments with MobiPocket, I plan to move on and keep caching! I have to voice my dissapointment with the members complaining that their $30 Premium Membership is now a waste.... You still have the benefit of pocket queries... and to me, for less than the price of one night at the movies, you get a full year of caching, and are helping to promote and support the sport we love. Not a waste of money to me at all!
  13. Wander around with your cell phone to your ear and no one notices when doing caches in busy areas... for those that are a little more outdoorsy... A camera is a wonderful thing! No one pays any attention to you at all!
