Comment:

 > Serial devices (including usbserial devices and serial bluetooth)
 speaking NMEA are supported.  Garmin use an other USB protocol.

 right, sorry for that. Nevertheless usb Garmin units are supported in gps
 tools, so I hope it will not be too painful to add the support in the
 "live gps tracking" tool.
