You're much braver than I am, and I was impressed with the gps. -----Original Message----- From: gps-talkusers-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:gps-talkusers-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Charles LaPierre Sent: Wednesday, October 17, 2007 8:47 PM To: gps-talkusers@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [gps-talkusers] Re: manual route problem Try turning off Force Sequential route following you may have better luck.
