Talked to a customer rep. yesterday and asked why HB doesn't have a regular power chord for thier units that can simply be plugged into the wall so that units can be used in the house for updates, working with waypoints or working through tutorials.

She said that the FCC regulates power chords and that the reason the power chord situation is like it is.

I didn't understand this because my Garmin 178C has a regular power chord that hooks from the wall to PC and I don't see any big differences in the two.

Oh well, I tried.
