I was wondering if you have updated your map on either of your GPS units lately and whether you have any additional map detail or whether the Great Wall is shown on the maps.

I have not made any updates yet although it is after the Olympics

However I don't expect any update to contain any terrain details or Great Wall.

I used Garmin WebUpdater to update my 60CSx to the latest firmware. It worked well. Not a map update, just operating software.

I have some trouble updating - maybe some Chinese firewall constraints

What is your software version?

I have software version 3.90.

This page shows the difference in the various software versions.
