You download golf course data from the GolfLogix website, load up your Garmin, and hit the links (greens? little balls? :) Looks like fun. But the local "Applegate Golf Course" in Grants Pass Oregon (which I can see from my house) isn't in their database yet :-( no matter as I play 76 ---- for 9!:o) and not even a GPS can help me.

WarDriving Huh? Folks drive around sniffing for WiFi internet hot-spots with a GPS and post the locations on the net. Sounds like fun!

Buy a Garmin GPS, then buy some stock too...GRMN, then you'll own a great GPS and the company that made it! - - - - - Update: 11/2006, I wrote the above words about Garmin ten years ago. I bought shares at $16, $18, $24, ... and more in the $30's, $40's etc... then when it got up over $100/share it split 2:1 and started paying dividends. So now I'm really old but with the dividends can afford to buy all the new cool things Garmin comes out with like the new nuvi-660 for $1000! See my nuvi-660 demo here . Take a lesson young people.
