You'd be better off with a cheap windows laptop. Used or otherwise.


Cheap laptops appear to be worth what one pays for them - and I've had a few, but not recently.

I'm open to suggestions or alternatives to the Neo - if you have any in mind. I like it's long battery life, the metal case and ...

I saw this recently:

Just as an FYI because I have found that the 590/5 is very fussy regarding data cables.

I have bought two of these cables https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0746NHSCZ (one 0m3 and one 2m0) in anticipation of buying an Apple Neo for trip use.

I can confirm that these cables enable Garmin Express and ...

Thanks twowheelstom,
Much appreciated.

Were you able to obtain a USB C to USB Micro - if that's what it is - cable which enables data transfer to and from your 590 from a MAc with only USB C sockets?

I'm contemplating buying an Apple Neo but am concerned about not being able to use the ...

Archive . This is a folder that contains numbered versions of previous track logs. It keeps the last 20 and overwrites the oldest one when CurrentTrackLog.gpx becomes full. If you like to keep them Save the entire folder every couple of months. If you factory reset or delete all of your data ...

Despite resetting my 595 at least three times, there are still (some) tracks and routes held in it. Is there a more effective method of clearing the internal memory or all user data rather than holding a finger on the lower right corner of the screen?

The reason for doing this is that I have ...

As an aside: how does one replace the 595 sw with that for a 590?

I'm afraid that I think that the 550 has not been beaten in the important areas although the Bluetooth implementation isn't great. The 550 screen is, easily, readable in bright sunlight unlike the awful 590/5 screen that Garmin ...

I'd love to see the gpx file of the route that goes through Capel Curig and then the massive detour over Llanberis pass. I can't make my Basecamp do that.

I can undertsand why it would go over to Llanberis before it turns back - there are no places where you can safely turn until you get over the ...

GPS is good but not as fun as paper maps taped to fuel tanks! Although, sometimes that "fun" is less than enjoyable!

I'll be in Barmouth on Friday.

Garmin does seem to have a, perverse, habit of dropping useful features. The 550 has the ability to start navigation when one crosses an active route. This is useful if one has a cluster of designed routes at a location. I've not seen it on any subsequent unit.

Regarding scatter rallies: this ...
