Oh that's really cool. If it were me I would dump to xml then just

that's cool that your gps can do that.

Well, GPS as in "let me connect my Garmin GPS to my computer and 
download all of my waypoints and tracks, superimpose them on a topo map 
or satellite photos, etc."

Something like what I can do with USA Photomaps.
