Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)Let's start with the downsides:-
1. Battery life is about 6 hours, so make sure you bring a few spares on long hauls.
2. Doesn't float.Not a nig negative for me, but may be for you.
3. That's it.Yes, it has no maps, but it doesn't need them - this ain't aimed at those users.You may as well say it has no marine or flight addons.....same thing - it's aimed at hikers/runners/cyclists/hobbyists.
Upsides?Lots!
1. Size - It is TINY.It's smaller and lighter than my mobile phone.
2. Waterproof.Tested it, true, it is.Water got into the batter compartment, and it didn't affect operation.Weird.
3. Trackpoints - 10000.Yes, Ten thousand.
4. Although its a budget model, it doesn't scrimp on other basic features - 20 route or 125 legs, 10 saved tracks, 500 waypoints, its plenty for anyone.
5. WAAS.Not used in the UK yet, but next year.
6. PC Connectivity - allows me to use my Ozi Explorer to upload/download pretty much everything.
7. Ease of use.... I was up and running in literally no time.
8. Speed - acquired satellites pretty damned quickly.
9. Feel - Feels damned good in the hand - buttons/screen well placed, feel good.Some have mentioned an on button problem, I don't see it myself.
10. Trip Computer - nice for runners/cyclists.Lots of configuration available to the user too.
11. Colour - you ain't gonna lose this gadget in a hurry....
12. Price - At
