The barometric altimeter was one of the features that actually attracted me to this model as I have quite a bit of experience with them in work related applications, but never in a hand held GPS.

What kind of bugs there are in Garmin's altitude feature other then the one you mentioned? Is the altimeter of a good enough quality to actually be useful if you know how to use it or is it pretty worthless? If it is of a decent quality it might be a neat thing to have as it can be used for all sorts of things other than telling you altitude.
