"It was a great GPS when it worked. It received signal with tree cover and cloudy without much problem. Used in with Topo program from Magellan, the GPS took on a whole level of enjoyment.

However, the software froze on me and I could not get it to work again."

"Looks and works great although the rubber covering the joystick is flimsy and fell off under only occasional use. Great otherwise!"
