The 496 has a mini USB. Lots of electronics have that now from cameras
to cell phones.

I've got an old yellow etrex, I could try that. I'm a CFII flying with a
guy that has
a 530W and a 496 in the aircraft. I didn't see a USB on the 496, so like you
said, it apparently requires a cable. It would be nice to display the actual
ground track after rooting around in the clouds for an hour.
