Sorry for the late reply, I thought I'd be notified if any action
happened on my request, but I guess not.

Your links didn't show up all the way on the page (They stop after the
first + in the URL), so it didn't do anything, but to be clear, here
are the steps I'm following:
1) Open GeoBeagle
2) from the main page ("these web links will show you a list of nearby
geocaches ...") I click on "Geocaching.com"
3) I locate a geocache near me and click on the name of the cache.
(Note this is in the cache list, not the map)
-- example: 
http://www.geocaching.com/seek/cache_details.aspx?guid=d7fc713e-1bf9-4260-
91f4-6572d4678ab7
4) a window comes up that says: "Complete action using:  Browswer  or
GeoDroid Download and import"

I also tried this
3) from the cache list I click on the link at the top of the cache
page that says: "Search for geocaches with google maps"
-- example: http://www.geocaching.com/map/default.aspx?lat=45.01&lng=-92.01
4) click on a cache link that I want to find
5) a window comes up that says: "Complete action using:  Browswer  or
GeoDroid Download and import"

I think I have figured out what the problem is.  When I click on the
link, I get an option for GCDroid, but no GeoBeagle option..thats
because, I need to go into the cache listing (Using the browser
option) and then click on the google maps link...that wasn't very
clear to me.  Would be nice if it was able to get that data like how
GCDroid does, right from the link to the cache page.

I guess if this is how the app is supposed to work, then this is a non
issue.

Let me know if that helps or if you need additional details.
