eaparks Posted January 19, 2007 Share Posted January 19, 2007 (edited) Does anyone know of a good reasonable source for a USB cable for an older Garmin etrex Vista? I not sure, but I think when these units came out they used a Serial Cable, please correct me if I'm wrong. I'd like to have a USB Cable. I mistakenly said a Vista C in the Topic Heading when it is actually the Vista (black and white). Thanks Edited January 19, 2007 by eaparks Quote Link to comment

Plug in simple, ready to go with latter versions of windows. They are pretty cheap now a days. Garmin even sells/sold them (Garmin GPS is my standard). Last one I purchased was on clearance at Wal-Mart. Hit up GPSGeek on eBay if you cannot find one, maybe he has one. Quote Link to comment
