Uh, Oh, Dave is getting angry! However, I agree with him. Downloading a flight trace is so easy. Turn off the brick, insert usb-stick, turn it back on and wait until the normal butterfly thingy is displayed with green status boxes. The unit will only download files that are not already on the stick and it beats the 4800 baud rate that I get with ConnectMe out of my 302 by a factor of 20.

No, Dave is getting frustrated, and I agree with him! If you upgrade the display software and look at the stupid thing - IT HAS AN IGC FILE DOWNLOAD FEATURE! So stick in the free USB extender, route it so you can reach it without taking your glider apart, then after your incredible flight, WITHOUT CYCLING THE PFB POWER, stick in your fancy thumb drive with the pretty lights, go to the igc file download menu, and get your stinking file so you can rush to post it on OLC to the amazement of the unwashed masses and adoration of the breathless groupies...

I would say RTFM, but of course the M isn't quite up to date yet...

Sheesh, don't you guys know any 14 year olds?
