    Not yet, waiting on a usb to serial cable that I need for my laptop. This 64 bit Toshiba don't like the converters. I have tried 2 already. Kinda sucks.

    I can download, but I can't upload. I need upload to "debug" my program in real time, thus the wheel barrow..

    I've tried those USB to serial cables and it seems they will work with some things, but not others. If I remember right, it worked transferring pictures, but not GPS waypoints. My old Garmin unit used a serial port cable for transferring data.

    Mine does too Ron. Garmin GPS 76. I finally received a cable that works usb to serial and vice verse. I probably want get much done until after Turkey day. I did a little debugging and I am able to capture and pick out the data I need from the GPS 76 NMEA output. This is/was a major deal. Now I just have to figure out how to manage this data. Lots better than working cross word puzzles on a crap day.
