I have an eTex, but I'm guessing the new touch sensitive units are easier to operate. The buttons on the eTrex are not real easy to activate.

I was inspired by your post to download the ACA waypoints for the first time. Looks good. I'm no geek, but have done some research on how to
deal with creating a track file for the eTrex. The ACA file looks like a straight line track file in the eTrex, with waypoints at intersections. The eTrex will not give turn-by-turn directions from a downloaded file, track or route. I am curious if you've been able to test the Dakota for turn-by-turn directions with a downloaded file? The Edge units reportedly will handle downloaded route files, turn-by-turn.
