http://www.garminforandroid.com/

Be careful, this site is not from Garmin. It just talks about Garmin stuff in general without getting into actual specifics. Looks like the objective of the site is to attract unsuspecting internet users desperate for Garmin on Android stuff.

I've disabled the direct link, so if you really want to go there, type the URL in your browser.
