Same here with a GPSmap 60CSx.  I just don't know whether it will happily
write more than 10,000 points a day (after that, the points should be lying
happily in a GPX file anyhow, but I'm kind of skeptical that it won't
overwrite the points at the beginning -- as it would have to do with the
built-in memory).
