    "At time of Purchase, best ever hand held."

    by scooterman67 on January 10, 2008

    Pros: Great antenna, mapping, sd memory

    Cons: Two minor cons.

    Summary: I've now had this unit over two years, It was hot off the press when I purchased it. I've put this unit to the test, driving, planning trips, finding gas, places to eat, & missing turns (sometime on purpose, just to see) It re-routed me back on track. I think it has some lack on routing as getting me home quicker at times, I think that can, & will get better. For the most part navigating on the streets with just beeps & all of the screens with turn by turn directions is a life saver compared to using regular maps, You learn the little tricks but it is necessary to read through, practice & learn how it get the most out of it. Two years, I went over land, water & in deep woods, heavy cover & no other unit publicly made can take me to my hunting tree in dark, I do have to triangulate three marks to get it exact but it works well with just one Mark, I just get picky to try & get it closer, sometims under heavy cover you can't get it down to 11, 12 feet as in the open. I have use many older GPS units in the past, this one hit new benchmarks in quality & performance & overall use, streets, marine & out in the woodlands. Plan your trips on your computer, get a larger SD memory card & buy the necessary Maps & most important, learn it & how it use it. I have two complaints, I got a glitch when I upgraded the free firmware, it sometimes won't start up first time, had to hit the power button twice to get it running, this happened right after I upgraded the firmware, I may remove that patch. Last the screen is small but is enough to do anything you will need. Unless your only wanting streets GPS with a larger screen, this unit still is tops after two years of service, heavy service from me.
