GPS - What's The Latest?

[El Gordo]

Bad luck Sweder. That's not a problem I've had -- though I've not exactly pushed my Garmin to the limits through excessive use recently.

I'd be reluctant to whack it too hard for obvious reasons. My plan would be firstly, a call to a Garmin -- though I strongly suspect they'll just tell you to return it .They're not likely to encourage you to hit it. Second, a message on the RW 'Gear' forum might just bear fruit. There's usually a lively Garmin discussion over there.
