[SIZE=1]note:[/SIZE] You can either use a card reader for your SD card or or leave it plugged in your Treo and use a pc data cable. You can choose either destinations when installing the Garmin Mobile XT files and when using MapSource to load a map.

And don't forget to do back-ups beforehand in case of data loss.

sir SS,

i have already installed the garmin XT software to my treo and when i run it there is an option that says Enter product key" and "connect to a garmin GPS"...

does this mean i can't use my pda as a gps?...sorry cause am really not a techie kind and i don't have enough know-how about this..if so, what gps receiver would you suggest?...

one more thing is i could not install the mapsource.it says "previous mapsource not found"..since i don't originally have the mapsource on my pc.
