Weed Mappers,
FYI
Evidently a Garmin eTrex Vista cannot be connected to a new Dell Axium X50
pocket pc. See emails below

Thank you for contacting Garmin.
Richard,
The Etrex Legend will output NMEA data for positioning, but you will need
some software to view or track on the pocket PC. If you have any
additional
questions please feel free to contact our product support team at the phone
numbers listed below or reply to this email.

Garmin TechSupp, Will they be able to communicate if I connect the Garmin
eTrex Vista's serial cord to the Dell Axium X50 pocket PC's USB port using
a
Serial to USB adapter? I have found a source of such adapters at
www.bluehillsinnovations.com but they do not mention any specific cable to
connect these two devices. Does Garmin offer any other GPS that will
connect
to the Axium X50?

Thank you for contacting Garmin.
Richard,
The Vista is designed for serial communications to a PC. At this time,
|
we
| | do not currently offer a connectivity cable for Pocket Pc's. I would
recommend performing a search on the internet for possible solutions. If
you
have any additional questions please feel free to contact our product
support team at the phone numbers listed below or reply to this email.
