I have a 60CS, so I cannot help you with your unit, but the warnings
sound all to familiar. Anytime you update firmware like this, you are
going to get all the dire warnings like this. Since you are basically
doing a brain transplant, if it isn't finished, the unit is basically
going to be brain dead. I am not sure what the almanac stuff is, but
everything I care about is in MapSource and I can load that into the
unit after I update, so that is no big deal for me. Don't know if the
eTrex is the same. Just be sure you have fresh batteries and everything is working before doing the update. You don't want the batteries going out in the middle of a process like this. Other than that, it is like buying the unit new. They don't warn you that it doesn't have your data intact, and if you back up your data and can reload it like you can with the MapSource / 60CS combination, then there is nothing to worry about. Besides, look at it as a sort of "spring cleaning" operation. :-) Sarah Chisholm wrote: **************************************** Our WebPage!
