On the contrary - Garmin does save just one big .gpx file per day, no matter 
how many times it loses signal or is switched off and on again. The one that 
saves lots and lots of files (and sometimes gets the filesystem corrupt in 
the process) is the NaviGPS.

Just remind that most models with a SD or microSD slot only accept cards no 
bigger than 2GB. That means "no SD-HC cards".
