Good question. All this is more than a year ago. :) I think Leon tried to make 
the ultimate driver with that etrexLegendCx plugin at that time. But he 
became pissed because I rejected a patch of him and he left. 

Thus chances are good that the devices match 100%. The best way to check is to 
enable the debug flag in CUSB.cpp line 44 and to dump the protocols to 
console. In the source tree of QLandkarte doc/protocol you will find the dump 
of my 60SCx. Compare the list and you know for sure.
