Choosing a GPS

I recently completed a self directed ride across Switzerland. I rented a Garmin ETreX that had the maps of all the national and regional cycling routes preloaded.
I live in the USA but plan to return to Switzerland-Germany for tours.
Are these maps available as a memory card or do they require downloading from a computer"
I use a Mac and a number of the Maps are not compatible with a Mac
Why is the touch screen(Oregon-Dakota) easier in your experience?

Bike case storage @ Skipton & other bike/train info

I am a CTC member from America. I plan to arrive at the Manchester airport and travel with my bike in a case to Skipton. Is there a train connection from Manchester to skipton?
Do you know of a place where I might store a bike case in Skipton?
Can I travel with my bike on the train from York (return trip) to Skipton on the train?
How do I determine which trains allow bicycles?
Best Regards:
