The serial port cable which allows my handheld and computer to transfer data and maps doesn't work with my new laptop, which is wireless (no phone jack nor printer port). Is there is a new or different cable (USB perhaps) that would allow the handheld to talk to the laptop?
Thanks,
Alvarita

If your Legend H has a usb port, there is a cable ( product number 01-10723-01) that Garmin sells for about $15 on their site. If it only has the proprietary jack, you need to get a serial port RS232-usb adapter. Most good electronics stores carry them.
