Got it working with the internal GPS on the UMPC and its looking good. 8+ satellites indoors sitting on my desk. Unfortunately this device does not have a PrtScr button so I will have to take a picture.

Can you confimed that it does not have an OSK? A member over mp3car.com said it does not have one.

I cannot find an on-screen keyboard. It does respond to using the stylus and writing on the screen in the appropriate box. I would hate to try that on the road.
Its always something, isn't it!

Next...how do I transfer my favourites from MapSource? I guess I need to call Garmin again.

3D differential is good in the house. I like that the stuff on the left and right edges of the screen is transparent.

Can you do me a favor and see if they've add all the street names in Fernie, and maybe some addresses, too? Before 2009 there is a street grid but it only has about three of the streets named and no addresses. It's one of my benchmarks to see how much they are improving.
