Negative Positive
Title: Software bugs fatal; BEWARE
Review: Simply unable to transfer any useful data to Garmin etrex vista. Software surprisingly useless. Tried many ways to modify parameters both with the unit and download wizard and this software seems to always end in "communication error" which is disappointing after a long download. Attempting to download for the Topo US 2008 CD also erases the database that comes on the unit!!! This leaves you with NO data in the GPS.National Geographic's mapping software not compatible with downloading but still is a seemingly more funcitonal product and actually works with the Garmin units.
Is the review positive or negative?
