<div text="#000000" bgcolor="#FFFFFF">the eTrex units seem to be much more accurate than the entry level<br>
auto units from Garmin. i'm intrigued though, by Martin's
description<br>
of the 60CSx (which appears to have been replaced in the Garmin
lineup<br>
by the 62CS). </div></blockquote><br><br></div><div class="gmail_quote">I'm not sure if I won't go for the etrex20 as well, both use standard AA-batteries, both have a low resolution screen but well readable in direct sunlight, but the etrex has additional Glonass functionality.<br>
<br>Not sure how much quality improvement the Glonass capabilities give, but I'd want them when buying a new GPS receiver ;-)<br><br> <br></div><div class="gmail_quote"><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex">
<div text="#000000" bgcolor="#FFFFFF">if the good tracks are on the microSD card then that<br>
means you can minimize cycles on the mini-USB port, as you can<br>
remove the microSD and use an external reader. this should lead to<br>
a longer useful life for the unit (yes, i'm really fed up with
having<br>
two dead Nuvis because of busted mini USB ports).</div></blockquote><div><br><br></div><div>yes, being able to take them out is an advantage. Some recent models also do wireless transmission I think.<br><br></div><div>
