garmin hand held gps

can't believe they don't provide a usb cable to get into your computer. the model i bought only had a serial cable, grrrr! Garmin wanted $60 for their serial to usb cable, so I went shopping and found one for $20 at radio shack. so if you are in the same situatation as me, save yourself some money by going to your local pc store or radio shack.

I suppose quite a few boaters/hikers don't follow the latest trends (USB ;) with their PCs, that must be why Garmin is a bit slow with them, too. The most up to date way of connecting would be via bluetooth, of course - to PC, smart phone, umpc/internet tablet...

Must be an older model... I own about 8 garmins and they all came with serial cables except the last two I bought and they came with USB.

What model?
