![]() I just got an email from Garmin saying that their version 4.00 software for the GPS196 is out. I was perusing the list of feature deltas between the 3.80 and this one, and one bullet item stuck out as interesting: support for obstacle database. This is not a feature of the 196, or at least wasn't when I bought it. Could they have actually added it since? Perhaps to compete with the Lowrance products? Will towers show up in my unit *for free* the next time I update the database? I did the update to the firmware to 4, and obstacles not appear, which is why I'm thinking I'd need a db update. Or maybe this just isn't what I think it is. -- dave j -- jacobowitz73 -at- yahoo --dot-- com |
