After finally making the little box do what it should (previous posts for probs) we had a play at exporting a html file from gsak to my docs, heaps quicker that straight to sd card.Then to card and banged it in and the result is great once you access the files it is easy to use, no more forgeting the clues, with a return to the car for a peak at the box avoided!
Best of all , it's free!

Yay my jornada arrived today, have Ozi loaded, gpxview cos gpxsonar didn't work. Now all I need is a cf card to hold all the ozi maps.

The version of GPXSonar that works with the Jornada 568 is
GpxSonarPPC2K2Beta121.exe
This program (like many) gets run on a Windows PC which then uses the USB connection and active sync. to transfer and install the program.

Yeah, tried that program without success, bu GPXview works fine, it takes GSAK html and displays waypoints on the ozi on the jornada, so I'm happy.
