Just what I was looking for, but the links appear to be broken. Shucks.

 

I was sitting here wondering if the eTrek I bought last summer (1) came with a manual, and (2) if I registered the unit. Senior moments.

Yeah...great manuals! I downloaded them and offer them to folks on disc when I teach GPS lessons! I recommend them to everyone just getting started...even though they obviously have a Garmin slant to them...

Hmmm, something is not working correctly on my PC since I reloaded Windows. I can't open an Adobe .pdf link, but I can open the same file if it resides on my HD and I open Adobe Acrobat Reader first. If I open Adobe Reader first, how do I get to a web URL? Or is that a workaround to another problem that should be fixed?
