i had a program once that i was playing around with. it has 3, 6, 9, and 12 mile alerts. but never had any friends to use it with untill now. so i don't remember what program it was. and google isn't coming up with anything.
i have another program called samecellsearch47. but it don't seem to want to work on 8330 running software 5.0
don't really need anything fancy. just a basic program to send an alert.
any suggestions?

There's a program called BLIP plus. It's made by blackline gps and you'll have to search since I cannot post links yet.
blacklinegps dott com will find you there.
All parties must load it, but then you're good to go. It gives 2, then 3 and 5 between 2 and 10 miles out. I've just now set the proximity setting, so I cannot tell you yet how well that feature works.
I travel a lot during the day, this program leaves a breadcrumb trail you can view online, so if it's tracking you'll be able to go back and see everywhere you've been (if you tell it to auto-publish).
We've enjoyed it, and it's free.
