This is the project I'm (slowly) working on--to transform OSM data into a
format required for Garmin GPS maps. For now, I'm planning to just output it
into cGPSMapper format and then use that to create the routable maps, but if
someone (else) were to reverse engineer the Garmin IMG routing format, it
could easily be switched to write it directly.

P.S. If you're interested in this, I've started by defining a sample rules
file which defines a transformation from an OSM way into a routable polyline
with all the required attributes (it has only one for brevity). It's shown
here: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/index.php/User:SiliconFiend/Ruleset
I'd welcome any comments.
