"Not suitable for walking/hiking"
Summary: This unit has great features, is very well constructed, and has a nice display, but the receiver is sub-par. Only moderate tree cover or clouds will block reception of the receiver. Also when walking/hiking I find that I have to keep the unit held up at chest level or it sometimes loses reception even in the open. I also have a Magellan Map 330 which almost never loses reception except in the thickest of woods or heavy cloud cover. I bought the unit primarily to keep track of how far I walk and hike and also to trasfer track info. to topo maps. But the unit loses reception so often that it is useless for this purpose. If your travels are mostly in the open,such as boating, etc. then it is a good choice. Support is too expensive especially for outdated map info. So for my purpose I give it a thumbs down.
