    60CSx just lost its memory

    I don't think theres any possible way that your mini SD memory card lost its data - take the batteries out, the chip out, wait 5 min & reassemble. And hope it doesn't happen again - when you really need it. Maybe a call to Garmin if they'll help, If it were me I'd want to know what happened...

    Anyone used MotionX GPS for the iPhone?

    Thanks Doug - I thought of that. We left from Conway yesterday down the Kanc - I didn't want to "waste" my battery. It may well be that & from the 60GSx I'm familiar as you travel a distance the acquisition time increases. All-in-all for me I'd rather be outside enjoying nature than inside...
