Hey all, I got my Legend Cx last night. :-) Meeee Liikeeeee. :-D
It came with Topo 3.02 and 2007 Topo maps of the US. I had to download the
Mapsource update from Darmin to get it to see my device, but once that was
done, I was able to easily upload ALL of AZ, the southern half of CA, the
bottom corner of NV and all the rest of the bordering mapsets around AZ.
This only took 70 megs at highest detail. I have a 512mb card in.
WooHoo!
I think I will go dl ShadowAce's AZ topo maps to supplement what I already
have. And then I found that WideWorldOfMaps has CityNavNT available for 99
bucks. So I'm contemplating that purchase now too.
Life is so much better in color! (I mean with a color mapping GPS) :-)
