Sarah,
Download the latest version and don't worry. The message is just a CYA thing.
For the version info, go into Main/System. Then there is something about SW
version in the info box at the top. My GPS is in the car so it's not in front
of me. Bring it if you're coming to lunch today. I'd guess you probably have
ver. 3.3 or 3.5.

Subject: [GeoStL] Updating GPS Software
I was reading an article about updating the software in my Garmin. Question:
How do I tell what version of software is installed in my GPS? I bought my
eTrex Legend last year in October. The latest version for my unit is 3.70 and I
have no idea what version I have or if I should update. The up date page has
all these warnings:
a.. Reverting back to previously released versions will clear user memory.
a.. Users are strongly urged to back up any user data they wish to save.
a.. WARNING: If your current software version is 2.50 or lower, this software
will clear all unit data including alamanac information. Back up all user data
before upgrading. After installation is complete, place unit with a clear view
of the sky for 15-30 minutes to re-acquire almanac data.
a.. WARNING: If this software is uploaded to a device other than that for
which it is designed, you will not be able to operate that device.
a.. If attempts to upload software fail, you may need to return the device to
Garmin® for service.
Any ideas on how to tell what version I have or other advice?
Thanks, Sarah (Crowesfeat30)
