I am having trouble using my 276c with Delorme Topo Quads and Street Atlas. I
have not been unsuccessful in connecting through usb/serial adapters. I get an
error "Can't open specified USB port". I am using the driver supplied by
Delorme for there earthmate gps (i was not able to find a garmin device
driver). It seems that the serial adapter are made to work in the opposite way
that I need (my need is usb from gps to serial on laptop). Is there a way to
use the 276c (which is usb driven) with delorme topo quads or delorme street
atlas (neither software has an option for USB without loading their driver for
their earthmate gps). Any help would be great.

No, unless you can get a serial cable. Garmin provides a serial cable
for some of the USB units, but I don't know about the 276C. You can
check the Garmin site for that information.
