There's a lot to Magellan's small, cool eXplorist 200 handheld GPS navigation device beyond its vibrant yellow exterior. Inside and out, the eXplorist is built to provide real GPS (global positioning system) abilities for serious outdoor use--from its tough, impact-resistant, waterproof exterior to Magellan's proven, powerful, and easy-to-use technology. The eXplorist 200 rewrites the rules by proving you can spend less and actually get more.Read more

Crash Test Dummy
In Dec 04 received one as a present. In June 05 it started shutting off on its own and then stopped turning on all together. Lost a weeks worth of sailing and diving in the Bahamas. Returned it to the store, bought a new one. It was handy and familiar thought I would give it another try. Since then it has dumped my saved Points of Interest THREE times. Now the other day it crashed and defaulted to to a screen called "Burn In Test". Fortunately it did this after I copied off my latest Points of Interest. Now I have a Garmin eTrek Legend.

very good
this is my first GPS, its working very well for me, u can trace the way your walking then inverse it to find your way back, you can convert the trace into routes, it has the usa map, but the map wont work in mexico, it will only give you the main roads of the country. good stuff

good for what it is
I see a lot of reviews saying, "Good entry level GPS!" I do not agree with this statement at all. With a GPS you should always START with the best one you can afford that does what you need. That way you are not buying one to practice on just to realize you need another one. Then you are out of $100 for your "entry level" and $400 for the fancy pants Garmin. I own two GPS systems which are exactly what I need for the applications I use them for. If you need to do these things and nothing else. Buy this one and don't worry that you cannot monitor barometric pressure (I am a meteorologist and I don't need a barometer or a thermometer). Here is what this one will do wonderfully for you. If you are anywhere and you get lost. This one will easily get you to a city, lake, river, interstate, highway, or major road.My main reason for this is to save locations for future use such as: good fishing spots, tree stands for hunting, important businesses, etc. What makes this GPS so practical is it's simplicity. You cannot load a bunch of useless stuff on here that will just slow it down. Who really needs topo? What is great about hiking is NOT knowing what is over the next hill. Another great thing about this unit is it is light weight. I backpack with a lot of folks, some of which are scared of anything that weighs over half a pound. These same folks haul a huge, heavy GPS handheld in their backpack and never use it the whole trip! Another cool thing you can use this GPS for is bicycle and motorcycle application. It is easily mountable on a bike. The screen is large enough to be easily read on the go and the backlight works well at night. It won't hurt this thing if you crash either. It is built like a tank. If it starts to rain, you do not have to worry because it is almost totally waterproof. In everyday application, I keep this thing in my cargo pocket. If I find a neat store or a great view along a mountain road I can quickly save the spot, give it a name, and cool little icon from the list. For everyday use I would recommend this to anyone other than a civil engineer on a job site. ... Read more

Great GPS
Finally, the perfect handheld GPS. The addition of microSD cards to the eTrex line has made the ultra portable unit the perfect companion to carry with you on all your adventures - land, sea, or trail. Although the unit comes with a 64mb card, I purchased two 1gb cards. When you own a Garmin Mapsource product, you are allowed to use it on up to two units. I already own Recreational Lakes and Fishing Hotspots, as well as CitySelect which came with my Garmin GPS V Deluxe which I still use all the time locally in my Jeep and on one boat because of the mounting ability and NMEA output. The GPS V, however, is limited to 19mb and is now utilized in the regions I most frequent. Unlocking CitySelect for the eTrex Legend Cx was simple at the Garmin website. I would recommend first updating the software in the unit to the latest version, which is now just a few keystrokes with Garmin's Webupdater software downloaded from their site to handle the large capacity cards. On one card, I have Recreational Lakes East and CitySelect for the entire Northeast and MidAtlantic regions. On the other card I have the remainder of the US and Canada. The cards are smaller than the fingernail of your little finger. The eTrex Legend allows you to enable all or whichever Mapsource products you want. When not using it on the road, I disable the CitySelect to take full advantage of the Recreational Lakes software. If you do not own a mapsource product already, then purchase CityNavigator which I believe Garmin has updated the most for the points of interest and new roadways.
great little versatile unit!
I found this to be the perfect balance between portability and car usage. It's bright enough and colorful in the car, yet small enough to carry around with you on a hiking trail. It takes a while to get a signal when it's starting cold, however, after that, say, if you turn it off to run into a gas station and then come right back out, it pops right up. Looses signal when amongst tall skyscrapers and under heavy duty forested trees, but I still gave it a 5 star review because that is to be expected.
move up from the original legend
I had the original legend and was not happy with the display.I was hoping to have the same unit with color and a few more options. The new unit will not share the power cord and you do not get half of the bike mount.I am also not happy that the speed no longer displays on the map page.

Survived driving in Italy
I just got back from a two week trip to Italy where I rented a car and drove from Sorrento to Siena. I also drove throughout the Tuscany region of Italy. I couldn't imagine driving in Italy without my Garmin 60Cx. I also used it for our walking tours in Rome. The only problems I encountered were with unexpected detours because of closed roads due to construction. Luckily I also had a good road map and directions for backup. I was amazed with the accuracy of the GPS especially when navigating through the numerous round-abouts and dirt roads that didn't appear on my road maps. I agree with all the previous reviews regarding the 60Cx - fast response, nice color display, versatility, etc. I also recommend purchasing the North American package that includes very useful accessories. The only reason I did not give this product a five star rating is the high cost of the roadmap software from Garmin.

Great for local / regional travel - not enough memory for long trips
I just returned from a trip to Europe. For our trip we flew in to Rome, drove to a rural area an hour outside Florence, spent a week there and drove to Florence, then on to Parma, the Loire valley and finally on to Paris. I purchased this unit and the Garmin MapSource European City Navigator v8 [CD-ROM] and offer the following comments.
Great unit but WEAK volume
Had to upgrade to the 60Cx from the 60CS due to the larger map file sizes discovered after upgrading to the new City Navigator North America version 8 software. Aside from having to buy a new unit, the 60Cx has a very weak alert tone volume. I rely on the tones to alert me to an upcoming route change, but the volume of the tones is so low, that if you have the stereo on, or are talking on a cell phone, you might not hear the tone. You'd think that Garmin could put a decent speaker in the unit and provide some way to increase or decrease the volume output. Believe it or not the volume of the 60CS was louder than the 60Cx, although still way too weak.

Knowledge is power, and thanks to the advanced technology packed into the Garmin StreetPilot 2730, you'll get plenty of both. The big news about this model in comparison to its predecessor, the 2720, is the addition of XM radio capabilities. With a subscription to XM radio services, you'll get real-time XM NavTraffic, XM WX Weather, and XM Radio service. What does all that mean? When coupled with Garmin's legendary GPS technology, it means you'll always know not only exactly where you are, and but also what lies ahead.Read more

Features

• Uses integrated XM radio receiver to deliver real-time traffic information, weather and entertainment
• Widescreen, automotive-grade touch-screen display automatically dims and brightens based on ambient light conditions
• Built-in MP3 player
• Text-to-speech technology speaks the names of streets and tells you when to turn and in what direction
• Includes MapSource City Navigator NT North America maps of the entire United States, Canada, and Puerto Rico

Maybe I'm Missing something
I've used the Garmin GPS III handheld unit for years and one of the map features I always appreciated was that Interstate rest stops were on every map.Everything works great with the 2730 Street Pilot and the XM radio feature is fine but do I really need to know there are 6 grass strip airports within a 5 mile radius?Are the rest stops somewhere in the POI's that I have missed?

Motorcycle friendly GPS
I had been searching the various GPS manufacturers for awhile before settling on the 2730. I recently took a motorcycle trip to Wyoming from NY and had this GPS mounted on the handlebars. Very well made unit that made my trip much more enjoyable. I purchased this particular unit over others by TomTom and Garmin because I liked the XM weather/traffic/radio combination more than the bluetooth capability of the 'rider' and the 2820 (although the 2820 offers XM also, it does not supply the antenna as the 2730 does). Being able to answer the phone on my bike doesn't seem the safest option, and I had heard that the bluetooth headsets don't have quite the sound quality I would want for traffic/music.

Not up to par with other Magellans
I have had a few GPS units in my car.My last a Magellan 700 roadmate was stolen from my car and so I decided to get this unit.
Great GPS, Poor mount
I have had this GPS for about a month, and it is extremely easy to use and had minimal set up.So far it has gotten me about 20 places with pretty good directions.The only problem I can see with it is with the cheap design of the mounting hardware.Mine is already broken and I have resorted to industrial strength velcro on the dash.

Worked right out of the box
This was the first remanufactured electronic device that I purchased but Amazon and Magellan are reputable companies and the price was unbelievable.I had used the Hertz NeverLost version so I just had to plug it in and it was ready to use.The user interface is very intuitive and the touch screen makes it even easier to use.It works great in the Los Angeles area and I plan to use it along the entire west coast.The unit came with the latest software already loaded and was in brand new condition. ...

Wonderful!
I'm so happy with my Garmin i2.Its a reliable little companion on my trips and I will never again drive for hours on unknown roads getting further and further from my destination. The Garmin always gets me where I need to go.Bravo!

Practical hints and observations for buyers
I've had the i2 for a few days only now. When buying, my main decision was between the i2, i3, and i5. I considered other models on the market too expensive. The i2 is monochrome with no maps installed, the i3 is color with no maps installed, and the i5 is color with maps preinstalled. Does color make a difference? Does preinstalled maps make a difference? After buying the i2, I feel I am not missing out on anything. Here are some practical suggestions:
works as good as any I have tried, better than most
Have had unit since November, 2005, so a longer term review here.

Pretty Good
I just took this unit on a 5000 mile road trip from Chicago to San Antonio, to Phoenix and back.The unit was worth the price, especially for finding routes off the interstate system.
waste of money
Looks nice but i had to return it because of constant glitches. Instead, I got a Garmin Nuvi which costs more but is well worth the money. You get what you pay for!

Needs some tweaking, but all around a great nav system.
I've been using my TomTom ONE for a week and a half or so and overall, I'm quite happy with it.Out of the box or after having been moved a significant distance while off, the unit takes about a minute or so at most to determine its position.From a warm start, it's usually a matter of seconds.

With the eTrex Venture Cx, Garmin offers all the basic features of the much-loved Legend Cx, without all the bells and whistles. You get the same great hardware and software with the Venture Cx as is found on the Legend Cx, but Garmin has removed the included MicroSD card, the USB cable, Trip and Waypoint software, and the bike clip. The result is an even more affordable little unit that keeps things simple -- perfect for the first-time GPS user or someone who doesn't want to fuss with a lot of extras. The Venture Cx is designed to go right out of the box, so there's no messing with computers or CD-ROMs.Read more

Nice unit, bad documentation
This is my first GPS unit. I bought it mostly for hiking around in the wilderness, as well as measuring my speed while in a car (it is more accurate than a typical speedometer, like 1/10 of a MPH in the right conditions).
Excellent Value
Very happy with unit, in my opinion the best value out there. upgraded from garmin etrex legend, night and day difference

Better than i thought it would be..
After careful evaluation of several reviews I chose this gps as the one to buy and Im glad I did. I also purchased mapsource US Topo to go with it, for back country hiking, driving or just knowing where you are it will do everything you could ask of a gps. It is accurate down to 7' which isnt bad, itll tell you elevation, speed,verticle speed, direction and a whole lot more. My only gripe is the little screen but I have excellent vision so its not that bad, however someone with bad eyes may find it a stuggle to read the screen if you have the device on the dash of a car while driving down a country dirt road, I love this thing. Dont buy the vista or legend buy this, then by the 512mb card to go into it and then get mapsource US Topo and youll be set. Oh ya, one more thing, more than half of the United States will fit on the 512mb card with detail on high! NICE!~!! ... Read more

Ok so when I bought this here on amazon I was in a hurry ..I thought this was a talking unit and its not. It would be good for a truckdriver etc but not for my needs. I need a voiceunit not just a small display

Garbage after the 3rd month!!
Bought this worthless piece of junk through Amazon. However after the 3rd month it doesn't start up, frankly useless.

Good unit but not in the Southwest
This is a great unit overall, but the rubber bumper around the edge of the unit is a real problem for those of us who live in the Southwest.It appears that exposure to the sun and heat causes the adhesive to disintegrate.I have had my unit since April 2004 and in just over two years, it had to be repaired twice for the same problem.I have spoken with a local Garmin dealer who confirmed that other Vistas (and similar models) have this chronic problem.Neither the dealer nor the Garmin can offer any solution but to send it in and pay for out-of-warranty repair of $125.They have no recommendation for adhesives.I have written to Garmin and have not received a response.I think this is a serious design flaw that Garmin has failed to address.

Good feature set, but the well known flaw is very annoying, especially given the price
If you want a GPS unit for backpacking, this one (or the newer color version) has among the best feature sets.Downloadable maps, an altimeter, an electronic compass, etc.It's a Cadillac, unless you step up from the eTrex line to something beautiful but horrendously expensive like the GPSMAP 76CSx (super duper Cadillac).However, a few things need to be kept in mind.

Magellan for Nervous Navigators (Like ME!)
I bought the Magellan 800 not wanting to spend alot but wanting good quality for my needs.It gets me to my destinations very well, sometimes I would choose another route and it keeps going on (unless you "escape") telling you where to turn but you may know a better way but it helps to get you to where you want to go.I am unsure if you can "teach it" but I'll learn that part soon I'm sure.
Returned GPS
This was a top notch GPS but my husband prefers his small one so we returned the Magellan

Terrible accessaries.

Great product, but only last for a few weeks.
I bought my first Forerunner 201 2 months ago.It had so many wonderful functions, I purchased 3 more immediately for our running team. After 2 weeks, one went dead.Then, one by one, three went dead.Amazon is excellent in replacing new ones.But even the replacement broke down after a few weeks. I really like the product, but now I am looking for other options - Timex Distance+time, or Nevman.

My husband loves it!
I bought this for my husband who ran his 1st marathon last fall. He can keep on pace, see his accurate distance, tell how many calories he's burned, etc. I personally don't have much experience with it, but my husband says He loves it!

Very tempermental and often innacurate.
I recently purchased this unit to replace the wireless computer on my bicycle. Out in the open the unit often works fine. Any time you venture onto any trails or urban areas with tall buildings the unit fails miserably and you get the GPS tracking error.

Editorial Review With an effective in-car navigation system at your side, you can say goodbye to the good old days of pulling over and asking directions. But designing an effective system, one that brings together the right mix of speed, accuracy, and simplicity has been a long, hard road for many manufacturers--leading many folks to stick with the human touch of the gas station attendant. The latest in-car GPS units deserve a serious look, though, especially by those who've sworn them off as too inaccurate, too complicated, and too expensive. The TomTom GO 910 embodies much of what's really great about the next generation of systems, and in many ways it's successful at making drivers feel as if there's a helpful guide along for the ride.Read more Features Portable GPS navigator with built-in 20 GB hard drive and intuitive 4-inch LCD touchscreen interface Delivers turn-by-turn directions in 36 languages and more than 50 voices; preloaded U.S, Canada, and Europe maps Bluetooth functionality communicates wirelessly with cell phone or headset for hands-free calling Built-in MP3 player and digital photo viewer; text-to-speech option announces street and place names Rechargeable lithium-ion battery; measures 4.2 x 3.1 x 2.5 inches (W x H x D); 2-year warranty Reviews (32) Problem with docking station I've had the unit for about a month and I'm having a difficult time with the docking station in the car.The suction part works fine but the arm does not hold the unit in place very well.Also when snaping the 910 to the dockng station sometimes it takes a couple of tries to make sure it's attached.This is a new unit I've used a Garmin unit in the past and did not have this problem.For these units to be portable they need a better docking interface.I can see a problem poping up very soon with a pin being broken or bent and there is no way to charge the device without the docking station. Top Notch GPS!! I usually do not write any reviews but I felt like I had to give my two cents about this product. The GO 910 has everything I need and want in a portable GPS. The out of the box experience was easy, the navigation top-rate, the re-calculation time when I missed my exit was quick, and, best of all, I could come home and dock the unit to my PC to download my address book. It even updates the software in the background as I work. Absolutely FREE - no fees! Old maps I bought the Garmin 2720 after returning my Tom Tom 910 in the year 2006. Read more

Landlubbers will find much to like about this unit, too, as it packs great GPS mapping capabilities into a compact device.Read more Features Bright, sunlight-readable color TFT display and an included a 128 MB microSD card Uses the powerful SiRF GPS navigation chip for supreme accuracy Includes barometric altimeter and electronic compass USB connectivity for sharing map and waypoint data with PC Preloaded with an Americas autoroute basemap Reviews (3) GPSMap 76CSX This is my first GPS receiver and I do love it.I will not go into all the pros, as others have already done that.I did want to share some cons: Satisfied User I found this device to be relatively easy and comfortable to use (one-handed, no less), and accurate to within 15' +/- under tree cover of greater than 90% mature alder and fir - once locked onto satellites under clearer overhead conditions in Seattle WA and using an external Gilsson antenna mounted atop a hat.Satellite aquisition under the trees did not happen the few times I tried.The display is excellent under sunny conditions.Downloading waypoint data into a text file was simple.I haven't used it yet under driving conditions, so I can't speak to using related features.Were it damaged or stolen, I'd buy another one without hesitation. Garmin GPSmap 76CSx, Great GPS! I highly recommend Garmin GPSmap76CSx unit to anyone looking for a GPS unit for the road, hiking and/or boating.The numerous menus and features are very intuitive and easy to use. The hi-res color screen may be small compared to in-car GPSs but is very clear.The time for the satellite lock is relatively quick.Even while indoors, I can get a lock on at least 3 or 4 satellites.Buildings with metal roofs or concrete floors above may not get any reception.This is expected of any unit.

My favorite GPS This is a fantastic unit. I own 3 GPS units. A Magellan 2000XL, a Garmin GPS V, and this unit. I use this unit far more often than the other units. It's light, accurate, and very easy to use. I really don't miss having maps at all with this unit. I use it for hiking, and dirt biking. I can't think of anything negative to say about this unit. I find it simply perfect for backpacking where weight is an issue, as long as you bring a map which I don't mind at all. Plus carrying extra batteries isn't an issue since it uses AAA's which are lighter as well. I highly recommend this GPS. Worth the research! I did a lot of internet searching for reviews on the Foretrex and other handheld GPS's before I plunged, and having been the proud owner for three weeks am happy to say that the 101 I have is close to perfect for my needs - recording long distance hikes and geocaching. I live in Portugal, where detailed maps for hiking are almost non-existent, and motoring Sat Navs give up as they cross the border (well except in cities), so I can live with the lack of mapping on the device. Signal strength is good and even though WAAS is not available here I often get accuracy figures of about 4m. The Field option list for display is very comprehensive, and I haven't thought of anything else I might need, except a capability to do split times on the Timer - and you probably could if you knew how!! If the Timer worked more like a conventional stopwatch it would have been better for me, but sailors etc probably think it is perfect. Read more

38. Garmin StreetPilot 2820 GPS Navigation System with Bluetooth by Garmin

Editorial Review Garmin has long been a leader in automotive GPS technology. Now they're taking it to the next level with the StreetPilot 2820. All the powerful GPS goodness is here, plus a healthy dose of media storage for preloaded North American street maps all your MP3s, as well as Bluetooth wireless technology so you can make hands-free calls on a compatible phone. You also get XM radio compatibility, a massive points of interest (POI) database, and an audiobook player.

So, if I'm *really* paranoid about missing audio cues when I'm driving, I don't miss them now. Alternatively, if you pair it with a bluetooth headset, you should be able to get the same in ear (of course you could also use the audio out for regular headphones while driving, say one earbud in, if you wanted). Bulky, too much $$ for the size Overall performance was great on this unit.I took 3 units for a 30 day trial run, this was the first one.The unit did everyrthing it was supposed to do flawlessly.The points of interest catagories by Garmin are superior they give you full address and phone number.It came in handy on Hawaii when we wanted ice cream and it was 10pm, we looked up Bakin Robins and called them phone number to find out they were open for another hour, deifinately a time saver. My second Garmin GPS: Extremely good, but missing lower-end features. This is the second Garmin product I've purchased, the first being a StreetPilot C320 for my mother which I've also used extensively. (I've reviewed the C320 also. Most of the good things I pointed out in that review also apply here, so read that one if you want more details than what I give here.) This one was purchased for myself and my wife to use in our new car. (New toys! Hooray!) Read more

I purchased the 530 after finding out that a new firmware edition had come out.The GPS was working fine.The screen didn't blank out when using the radio.However, when I was using my radio to communicate with a Rino520, the voice transmission from my radio was garbled and had a lot of background noise.I verified the channel codes, even turned off the "scramble" mode and the radio still did not transmit properly.I could hear fine from my 530, I just couldn't communicate out from it. Very Nice This is my first rhino and I'm quite pleased with it.I've used it for hiking, geocaching, and hunting.It does everything I want and I keep finding more stuff.I'm happy enough with the mapping, the radio makes it a fantastic piece of equipment. Love it, Love it, Love it!! I have had nothing but good luck with this unit!!I have had it "lock" up on me only once, and that was while duck hunting in -4 degree temperature.I love the color screen, the temperature readout is great, the weather radio gives the forcasts in my area which is awesome, I love the electronic compass part of it, the base map is pretty good, it shows all of the major turnoffs off of highways and interstates.I have owned the 120, and 130 also and this 530 beats them all!!I have brought this new unit elk hunting, deer hunting, duck hunting, goose hunting, crane hunting, turkey hunting, camping, to the lakes for fishing and boating, several cross country trips and vacations, and too many scouting "adventures" to count.The lithium battery lasts a LONG time (when using GPS only), and I can usually hike back to get to a 12V adapter and get it charged (either in the truck or on the 4 wheeler).I have recommended this unit and all of the rino's to several people.My father in law has one for hunting communication and always being able to find each other on the map.It has been awesome!!!! ...

The Lowrance 500C works great. It is especially helpful when making several stops in unfamiliar places. I was surprised to find it was able to navigate to my week-end home which is on a dirt road in the mountains. The mount is quite secure. My Nissan Pathfinder provides a space for the unit to rest. The screen is large and bright enough to see in all lights. Sound from the power cord is loud and clear without attaching to your speakers. The unit is heavy but detaches easily when it is removed. I purchased the unit from Amazon who delivered it promptly as promised. Lot of features, no use I have this unit for 1 year now. Greatest problems. (BTW, I have latest software 1.7.0) Don't buy it Don't buy this unit. The database is terrible, and Lowrance wants $75 for an update. This unit has sent me on wild goose chases looking for stores that moved from the database's given address years ago. It has no listing for businesses that have existed for years, and more often than not tells you to turn after you already passed the street it wanted you to turn on. Extremely disappointing, and definitely not worth the money. ...
