[...] Thank you Nev. Yes, I am aware of converting OSM data to Garmin format. I do this now for use with my Edge 810. But I was wondering about a GPS that uses data in a non-proprietary format, so that no conversion would be necessary. As I said before, I suppose such a thing doesn't exist. But I wanted to pose the question, just to be sure.
