Really funny.
I must confess that I didn't think about the subtype. I just wondered, why an 
Island was under "water types" in my menu. And so I suggested to change the 
type.
But I learned a lot of interesting things in this discussuion. :-)))

Summasummarum my point of view of the Garmin devices has not changed:
They make really good hardware but the software would really need to be 
improved. When I look at the chaos in an official Garmin forum I doubt that 
they have a software development process.
