Summary: I use this gps all the time for geocaching and road trips. I like to use it even when I know where I am going just so I have a better idea of my ETA.
Pros: Quick synchronization - works well under heavy forest cover (west coast BC) - low battery draw with back light off - recent firmware upgrade, the unit will now support large topo maps (4GB) - easy navigation menus - good email technical support.
Cons: Crippled desktop software. The print function has been killed for maps installed from their data CDs. If you purchased your maps on a microSD card, you cannot even view them on your computer.Nor can you backup the microSD card.
Summary: This is my third handheld GPS and by far the best. I do a lot of hiking in very mountainous terrain and this faithfully works under the most extreme conditions ...
Summary: This is my third handheld GPS and by far the best. I do a lot of hiking in very mountainous terrain and this faithfully works under the most extreme conditions including low valley under heavy tree & cloud cover. For coverage in Canada, a free topo map set can be downloaded at <http://www.ibycus.com/ibycustopo/>. Full set of maps fit of a 4GB microSD card.
Pros: Works well with my PC, rugged/ waterproof (up to 30min.) will provide extra security in deep forest hunting. Lots and lots of options. Computer suave dream toy(sort of).
Cons: No Maps of US, 1 GB Memory card will have to be replaced with more memory, Cheapest Garmin Map for step-by-step, functionality costs at least $89.95. Garmin should have provided either a great map or high end memory card.
Summary: I enjoy the unit quite a bit and will come in quite handy hunting in the deep forest. I was dismayed that the only roads, etc. on the unit were ...
Summary: I enjoy the unit quite a bit and will come in quite handy hunting in the deep forest. I was dismayed that the only roads, etc. on the unit were I-5. It became so frustrating and nonfunctional as a everyday driving GPS that I was forced to cough up $89 for software to enhance my user experience with it.
In addition, I will, more-than-likely, have to buy a bigger memory card for it as the provided card only holds 1GB of memory (better than nothing).
In all I'm somewhat satisfied but feel that I'm being nickel and dimed to death. When I spend hard earned money I want the most bang for my buck. Perhaps this unit is highly competitive with other units in its class and for the price is a good buy but we have to keep them honest.
