Thx. I just will use second receiver. Since I have several of them it shouldn't be any problem. The one I've got buying Garmin nRoute works perfect with GPS Gate, and the one from ALK CoPilots' feeds ... GMPC. Go figure.
The only reason I use Garmin's for GPS Gate is longer cable. I have glass window in roof of my truck and antenna placed there has unobstructed view of the satellites. Windshield in my truck is quite steep, almost vertical and receiver placed on dashboard sometimes can't see satellites. CoPilot's cable won't reach to the sunroof. And because GPS Gate feeds several programs on my computer I rather have that one connected to Garmin's. I tried extensions and external USB's, but they somehow confuse me and my poor laptop.

Thx. It may be to complicated for me. I'm not a major geek. I'm not even a minor geek. I'm just regular, plain geek.
I'll just wait for full version to look into maps.

The touch screen is just an external monitor. You can have both on or toggle between the two. On my laptop you use the F4 key. Yours may be different. |
OK, thx. I just bought it too. And if it won't work, you will be responsible for it.
If I'll have any problems I hope you will be able to help me.
