Have just come across this brilliant little program for my IPAQ.

Just what I have been looking for after my Palm died.

Unfortunately cant find any documentation as I try to connect to my GPS CF2 card.

Anyone able to point me in the right direction??

I have the manual for the previous versionas a PDF
file which i can email you if you want. The basics
are the same, polar and airspace have changed slightly.
I used xc-soar all last season - it worked very well

The URL does not seem to work. Canīt download the s/w - "the URL is not
found on this server". Anyone who has a good idea?

http://www.xcsoar.com/ is working at present. The website has a new
look, so its quite possible you caught things in the middle of the
change-over.

Are you using windows CE version 3 (or later) as this
is a must for XCsoar?

Do you know the format for waypoint and airspace files?

Thanks
