I've read where some of our WGA folks download cache pages onto their Palm Pilots, and use that info along with the GPSr.

Gram & I have progressed to downloading caches directly into the GPSr, and are now ready to jump to the next tech level. But we still print out cache pages.

Gram has a Palm TX, which she primarily uses for contacts, the calendar (which syncs with a Palm app on her work desktop pc through a Palm usb cord), and memo's.

Can somebody please tell us in very simple terms what is involved in downloading cache pages onto the Palm?

Thanks a lot.

Jim & Chris, boldly charging into the 21st century

its a $8 program and worked well for us.

That was our method, too. It worked great for us.
