Not being quite on the ball, i've found out that 3.3 has been out since December.
My question is this, what constitutes 'User Data'?
Because i'll lose it when i update the firmware.

    Your personal settings, history, courses, workout etc. Go into the Garmin folder, back them up, update firmware on the unit and then transfer your saved user data across.

    What's the latest firmware version for use with a powertap please? I'm currently on 3.1 is there any point updating to 3.2?

    3.2 was awful, so bad that even garmin pulled it

    for most, the current 3.3 release is better than 3.1

    but powertap users report issues with both, it seems like some prefer 3.1 or 2.9 with powertap

    plenty here...
