I received the package but they sent me the band to the legend not the Venture. Called and they will send the correct part. Hope it works out.

I've just had this happen to me with my 17 month old Etrex venture. It never sits anywhere hot except when its on the dash navigating for me and that's prett rare. Otherwise I keep it in my purse when I'm not using it. So the warmest it could get is when I'm holding it on hot days. I emailed Garmin and they replied that they could repair it for $99, yikes these have come down in price an d$99 is a good chunk of that. I was told to call and talk to a representative and if you get the right rep they will send a repair kit for free. The kit came, no directions what so ever but at least it didn't cost me almost $100. So call, wait about 15 minutes and hope you get a rep that is generous if not call back and try again. It worked for me on the first call.

Hi, Yes I already new about that but what I am suggesting is when we do maintenance, and the cache is still active, that maintenace date is reflected on the "Find caches" page, you know where you have the whole list briefing of caches around your search. If the maintence date of a still active cache was reflected I think there would be many more recent finds rather than just leaving the last found date which in this case hasn't been found since May. I guess what I'm getting at is the "last found on" date should be changed to a "last found on/last maintained on" date so anyone looking at it knew its still up and active. I know I don't bother looking at a cache page if it hasn't been found in a long time. That doesn't mean it might not still be there but I just don't usually bother. If, however, there were a recent owner maintence icon on that find caches list I would be more likely to open the cache page and read it.

I have a cache that hadn't been found in a while and checked on it. It's fine. I think it would be very helpful if there was a button owners could use to let other cachers know that the cache is up and running on the "Hide and seek a Cache" list of caches page", so other's won't pass it by because it hasn't been found recently. IE instead of just "last found on date." There could be an "owner checked on date" as well. It would only be for active caches.
