My information from garmin is they have no intention to fix or change the XT software.

In a recent email with Garmin they say "While we appreciate your enthusiasm for the product, since the zumo XT is out of software maintenance we are limited is what we can do with the reports. At this point unfortunately we do not have the resources in product support to test and investigate th...
