[OSM-talk] sponsor letter draft

I called Garmin to sponsor my sub-project of OSM (
http://www.livingwithdragons.com) and the U.K. marketing manager hadn't
heard of OpenStreetMap.
Later I found Garmin have some guidelines on their website for sponsoring a
fund raising project that makes use of GPS receivers (they will supply the
required GPSes if you meet the guidelines and contact them).

I don't know about the other manufacturers, they all seemed to big and
US-centred to care about me.
