You didn't state which device you are using.  This may be helpful:

Also, there is an XML file in the Garmin directory that tells which
firmware version you are using, among other things.

I think I'm using http://www8.garmin.com/software/Edge605_705_260.gcd
on my device (simply copied to Garmin/gupdate.gcd, rebooted, and finally
removed that file).  I did that on January 22, 2009.
