Hello, another new scroll owner - a little younger though, but just as passionate about gadgets!

I've rooted it, dumped the phone apps, installed some custom skins and CPU manage/battery manager/memory manager. For the money (£139.99), it's a mega bargain.

So is it possible to link Android up to the Garmin?

I assume that by "Android" you mean the Scroll, but I'm not sure which Garmin you mean. I've managed to get an eTrex hooked up to my Scroll via a USB to serial adaptor. A bit of rooting and booting is required, but it works quite happily with offline mapping software like Copilot, AlpineQuest etc.
