I found a Garmin device while out and about today. Is there some way to get Garmin to trace it's owner?
This won't answer your question, but this is Garmin's policy: I Have Found Someone's Lost Garmin Device
Alternatively you can also download the activity files from the folder //GARMIN/Activity/, load them for example into the Section Remover of the FIT File Tools, and try to see where most of the activities start and end. That may tell you where the person lives, and you can let a message there.
