I have a Garmin 4208 I recently updated the firmware version from 2.10 to 4.20
It changed some functionality of the unit and fixed some of the internal bugs.
I read through all the notes on the upgrade but did not see where they
removed a function
that I like very much. It took 3 calls to Garmin before they said they
removed this function.
Actually I believe the function now only exists if you add the Bluechart chip.

The function that no longer works is the current function. Prior to
the software upgrade you could roll
your display arrow over the current diamond on the chart and it would
display the direction the current was flowing
and how strong of a current. This funtion no longer works wit the new
software. So be careful before you upgrade the
software on your Garmin.  Not sure what course of action to take but I
would like this functionality back.

Still Love the unit   8^)
