Best bang for your buck,May 27, 2009
By bandmasterjffrom Arkansas
Advantages: Durability, Ease of use, Performs well, Quality, Value for money
"Very simple to use even without reading the instructions. I imagine it would be even better if I read them. Tracking is great, waypoints are easy to add and edit. This unit is a vast improvement on the older models it picks up satilites in even the thickest brush and even in a few shopping malls. I checked it's way points with google earth and virtual earth and it was spot on perfect. I've used it for hunting and fishing situations and has not let me down. Uses a very inexpensive cord to connect to my computer. If you've got a device that uses a mini usb you're set."

Great deal, great GPS,May 16, 2009
By RackAttackfrom Oklahoma
Advantages: Durability, Ease of use, Performs well, Quality, Value for money, color screen, compact Disadvantages: non-electronic compass
"For the average hunter and camper, this unit is the one. I've used higher priced units and this one beats them. Color screen, ease of use, ability to set up as you wish, affordable all make it simple to use and fun. It acquires satellites quickly. I like it better than the Vista. Only drawback is it doesn't have an electronic compass. You have to be moving for it to work, but if you have a magnetic compass as a back-up...no biggie!"
