+treebark Posted September 9, 2005 Share Posted September 9, 2005 What firmware is the MAP76cs and do they ever lock up??? Other than memory what else is different than the MAP60cs? Quote Link to comment
+Sputnik 57 Posted September 9, 2005 Share Posted September 9, 2005 (edited) The five normally cited differences are: 1. 76cs is larger 2. 76cs floats (the 60cs floats only with lithium batteries) 3. 76cs has a larger basemap (13MB instead of 8MB) 4. 76cs has its key above the screen 5. 76cs has more memory (128MB chip less 13MB basemap=115MB vs. 64MB chip less 8MB basemap=56MB). More in this thread. Links to basemap comparisons in question 6 of the Maps Section of the FAQ. Edit: firmware is identicle. Recent threads re lock-ups mention the 60CS, but I would assume that the 76CS would behave the same. Edited September 9, 2005 by Sputnik 57 Quote Link to comment

I thought the base map had nothing to do with the available memory....In fact my 60 CS has 54 Meg available and I have loaded 53.3 into the unit with no problem....so..... Quote Link to comment
