Andre, First of all you need the MapSource mapping software from Garmin. Use the tool 'Open from device" where it will download your track, route and waypoint (the same way you synchronized data from your Palm) into the basemap. Watch out the map projection use- must be the same as per GPSIII+ and MapSource map. You can then import these route, waypoint and tracklog using the DXF import into your MapInfo basemap by preserving the attributes. MapSource Ver 4.X support DXF export. I'm currently using GPSIII+ and works well.
