Software questions for Magellan GPS 315

[Guest ruttencutter]

I just bought a Magellan GPS 315 the other day and found my first cache on Sunday.

 

I would like to purchase the wonderful data cable but before I do I have a few questions for this group.

 

My Magellan currently has the path I took to find my last cache. Can I download this path into some software application and keep it? =) That is basically the only reason I would buy a cable besides interfacing it with my laptop for road mapping software.

 

So:

1. What software can do this, if any, and what is the url for it?

 

2. What good software is there that would allow me to use my gps as a tool to do road navigation.

 

Thanks

Our PanTerra software can be used to back up the data in your GPS. You can download it at http://www.topografix.com/download.asp. You might find some of the other features useful for road navigation - it can import MapBlast driving directions and send them to your GPS, for example.
