Do y'all know anywhere around the D/FW area that will download the 93sv updates to a supplied new microSD card? I'm willing to bring or drop off the card and pay to have this done. I'm going to call West Marine to see if they do it, but thought I would ask here 1st to see if something closer to G.P. was available. Thanks!
P.S. I do not have a computer where I am at capable of performing this.

You should be able to do it yourself. Plug the SD/micro SD card in to your computer and download from Garmin's website. http://www8.garmin.com/support/software/marine.html

I've looked at the update for my model, even have it saved. Here's the problem, the only computer at the house doesn't have a card reader/slot, it's an old cheap computer still on DSL but has a 20" flat screen monitor. It is only used for my 83 year old mother to play spider solitaire. That's why I'm asking if anyone knows of a place that will do it. Thanks tho! I wonder if I took my microSD card out of my phone and put the new card in the phone, if I could download the update to the card that way? Thoughts on this?

The phone card won't work. Office Depot has a card reader that plugs into the USB port and will allow you to handle the rest on your own.

Yes, if I had a computer that had USB ports or SD slots, I could do it. I probably even have a card reader that went to my computer that was stolen from my place at Fork, that tower had 6 different slots and several USB ports, but your not understanding. I do not have a computer that is capable of this where I'm at. If I did I wouldn't be asking if anyone knew of someplace I could get it done, I would do it myself! Guess I could go buy a new computer just to do this, but that is kind of stupid since I'll never use it again after that. Thanks again!
