Last time I looked at this the 62-series did NOT store the tracks on the micro-SD-card like the 60csx does. It stores the tracks on the 1.7GB internal memory (so yes, this is also quite "infinite", but it is not the same, e.g. you can't use an external card-reader to get these tracks). The newer models like the 62series also seem to have an automatic track-compression you cannot turn off (so no "raw" tracklogs) if I recall right. You can find a lot of info about these devices also in the osm-wiki: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Garmin/GPS_series cheers, Martin _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
