I've been looking at reviews for the Dakota 20 (my gps) and it seems to do ok against other Garmin models.

Like the reviewer here, my biggest complaint is the touch screen. I don't have large hands/fingers, but I still have a tough getting getting the thing to do what I want sometimes.
One thing that confuses me is the use of 'memory.' Maybe one of you that is more familiar with how these things work can fill me in.
(1) My device's 'track log' can store '10,000 points, 200 saved tracks.' Can this capacity be increased by adding a micro SD?
This is what the manual says:
the memory cards can be used to store files such as images, cartridges, geocaches, routes, waypoints, and custom POIs
The reason why I ask is that I would like to get a more accurate track for Skyline (for my own use), and am wondering how much I can decrease the interval without exceeding the # points that can be saved.
(2) If I load a previous track to use as a map to follow on my trip, does this use up my available points?
(3) What is the difference between a route and a track?
Here are the specs for the device:

Thanks for the input!
