rated 3 of 5 stars Meridian Color
Reviewed by Dave Wybo, Dec 10, 2004

"I really like the hardware, sturdy, water resistant, nice color screen and the views are clear and readable.

The map software, specifically MapSend Topo, leaves much to be desired. The data is inaccurate, and useful only for car navigation. I found the map data at times to be as much as 1/4 mile off."
