GPS Software / Hardware
Hey,
my dad has an older garmin GPS 12 handheld reciever, they sell a serial cable for it, I was just wondering how I can find out if the reciever is compatable with software. I have tried to find lists, but cannot find them anywhere.

Any pointers to some info would be greatly apprecheated.
