Garmin GPS's

[Kris K]

So my one year anniversary is coming up at the end of the month and, my lovely wife is going to get me a GPS. I've looked around at alot of diffrent kinds and, it seems that all the people i talk to say to get the Garmin Etrex Legend.

I'll most likley be getting the package deal that comes with the in car power cord, dash mount, case to put on your belt, video and the topo map to download on to the GPS. Is the topo map anygood??? Just wondering what all you guy's and girls think.

I'm mostly be using it for geocashing, hunting and wheeling.

Dose anyone have a hook up to get it cheaper??

I have a legend. The only thing I don't like is it uses serial instead of usb. The new Legend C has usb which is nice if you have a newer laptop with no serial port.

I don't have a lap top but that is something to think of.

Anyone else?

I have the garmin legend and I like it quite well. I barely know many of the functions on it, but it seems easy enough to use and has done the job when I needed it to. The topo map seems pretty cool, again I haven't used for hardcore navigation, but it's nice to have.

Love my Legend, my laptops both have the serial plug so I don't mind about the cord, but the USB is more user freindly...

Thanks guy's

I've looked at the Rino 110, GPS 60 and the Legend. But the legend is the only one that comes with the package deal.

So i'm guessing the Legend is the way to go.

I've got the Legend, I love it. Never had a problem and it's easy to use. Don't know anything about the software, sorry!
