May I suggest to replace "to your garmin device" by "to Garmin
devices"?
Rationale:
- avoids personnalization
- capitalize Garmin

Also:
Other devices: executes an external command to write a GPX file to the
device

Probably standardize on "GPX", also

There could exist another service using the same protocol, so I think
it probably can still go to main.
