You have to install them as a POI (points of interest)...
You have to create a excel document in a certain format with the gps co-ordinates written in a special way...
I have done it and it is as awkward a crap...
If someone has an easier way to do it i am all ears...

I have decided to let SWMBO have the C320 and will look for another GPS for the off-road stuff.

Alan, curious as to what this will bring to the table vs the current crop of portable navigators?

When you mention 'Aussie treks' I think you're meaning Tracks4Australia. These Garmin/Mapsource compatible maps are downloadable from a number of sites. I downloaded them from GPSOz.

I know from other forums that T4A can be loaded without problem, on to the C320.
