[OSM-talk] Choice of GPS for bicycle use in London

[Barnett, Phillip]

Ah, yes, thanks. I knew there was a problem - your link confirms it.
Guess I'll have to wait till there's a fix.

The developer of gpsbabel has been working on support for the Garmin X
series. He recently posted a beta build for windows, linked to from the
wiki
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/index.php/GPS_Reviews#GPSMap_60CSx

I'd think it likely you could get a hold of the source from him, at
least, or perhaps a Mac build.

Have you tried posting to the gpsbabel-misc at lists.sourceforge.net
mailing
list? Pretty responsive to issues in my experience.
