Well, grin, guess I kind of assumed I got the Bluetooth receiver with the
PK, but I don't see that Blue Logger document you are talking about in the
receivers folder. Of course, I could be doing something incorrectly and
just not finding it, though. I did find some little print document that
seemed to talk about the Blue Logger, although I didn't take time to scan
much of it. And, I did find that read me document. Found the GPS install
file in the none directory of the CF card, too, for that matter. But, I
haven't tried yet to do the actual installation. So, guess I'll call it a
night and try more tomorrow, or is that later on today.

Vicky,
I think what you are looking for is the doc called Blue Logger getting
started.doc which is in the receivers folder which is in the documents
folder.
There is also a readme file which should be there somewhere, but not sure if
it's actually in the documents folder.
I got my upgrade via email, so don't know exactly how the cf card is
organized, but I'm assuming it's similar to what I've described above.
If you got the bluetooth receiver, and I'm guessing you did, there is only
that getting started document as that's really all you need.
Hope I'm not just confusing the issue even further.

Well, grin, I haven't even gotten that far. For, I, too, am still looking
for that quick start guide. Oh, I take that back, I'm looking for the info
for the receiver for the PK. Or, maybe that's the quick start guide you are
talking
about as well? When I go to the CF card and find the receivers
directory, I find info for a serial earthmate and two Magellan receivers.
Also, while I'm at it, in reading the installation info in the GPS manual,
it seems to indicate that we put the CF card in the unit first, and then do
the 1 2 3 reset with the CF card in there, and then run that GPS install
program. Is that correct?
And, seeing as I've only used the Sandisk CF wireless card on the PK, I'm
sure having a time getting these CF cards out. Anybody got any tips on
that, as it took me fifteen minutes the first time I tried.

Still no luck. The .exe file won't unzip on my pc. Am not sure what's
happening. I never had trouble installing any gps version before. Should
there be a .zip file somewhere?

Debra,
Normally, the program is zipped up when it is emailed to you. If so, you
need to unzip it on a PC first before you can install the exe on the
BrailleNote.
