I don't have any 2 gig SD disks lying around so it looks like
that could run a good $60 just to get a blank disk so I can do software
updates on the machine!

My Guaranteed-for-Life Ridata 4GB SD card was $53. 2GB cards are cheaper.

Many items do not support the larger cards. (No laptops at CC will read a
4GB SD card unless you steal a new driver for it from sagernotebook, for
instance.) Call the GPS manufacturer and make SURE it will read a big 2GB
SD card before you find out the hard way it won't.

(Laptop owners: Follow the instructions from this Australian forum:

The message at the top of the webpage gives detailed instructions on how to
make laptop computers read an SD card bigger than 512KB because Micro$not
uses a 2000/2002 driver for the TI multicard readers in laptops. Works
great!
