You can get a serial->usb adapter in your local electronics store for $25 or so (last time I checked).

Does anyone know if you can export the tracklogs and import them into Mappoint 2004? I have been looking for a handheld GPS unit like this for under $200 that can import tracklogs to Mappoint 2004, but havent gotten a straight awnser on any that can.
