Okay, I'll admit it. I'm a dummy. I just talked myself into a Garmin GPS196 (black & white) and it comes with a free download of the database update. However... nowhere in the manual can I find how to go about downloading the update and installing it to the GPS. I know there is an interface cable for my PC, but beyond that I'm clueless as to how to snag and download the update.GPS196 users who can help me, please email off-list at taildrags(at)hotmail.com or point me to some instructions somewhere.
