I just received an update to my Etrex 22x (Gen 1) via Garmin Express.

Gen 1 HWID: 3445

All seems to be OK with the update.
Will test t later today or on the weekend.

Hi.
I tried the 2.80 update on a Gen 1 etrex 32x, the routing is working better i judge. It takes less time for it to understand when to recalculate and less time to adjust the remaining distance, especially when walking slow.
