Just a bystander here -- I don't even own a smartphone (I'll put that off
until strictly necessary), but thanks for those infos.

I'm downright appalled to see that a little piece of hardware comes tied
to TahCloud and doesn't give the user any choices in that. I'd be raging
at Garmin, were I their customer, for being (mis)treated like that.

Seems I won't be a customer of Garmin, then.
