Rated4Stars — Fri, 25 Jul 2008 13:39:44 +0000

We get many questions about finding a single GPS that does it all, taking you from car to trail to the lake or offshore. Oh, and geocaching would be nice, too. And, of course, it needs to be waterproof and have great battery life...oh and how about a removable battery to boot? Well, Garmin's been busy on your behalf and the nüvi 500 series may be the ideal solution in the emerging "crossover" class of GPS systems...

Rated4Stars — Mon, 14 Jul 2008 16:30:28 +0000

The past few years have seen dramatic advances in the GPS units we use in our cars, with intuitive, user-friendly interfaces and an ever-growing number of features. Though handheld units have certainly benefited from new, more sensitive GPS chips and other advances deep in their electronics, they haven't realized the same sort of game-changing advances as their vehicle-based cousins...until now. Garmin's Colorados series ushers in the next generation of handheld GPS units, offering a rich feature set while incorporating the ease of use you've grown accustomed to in the car, within a rugged, waterproof shell. Outside Magazine sums it up, "The Garmin Colorado 400t was born for serious backcountry time, and you won't find a more user-friendly or durable handheld GPS" while About.com concludes that the "400t lives up to its promise of being a next-generation handheld GPS."

Garmin GPSMap 60csx Handheld GPS Navigator: REVIEW

Rated4Stars — Thu, 05 Jun 2008 12:55:35 +0000

We thought we couldn’t like a handheld GPS more than the GPSMap 60cs, this unit’s predecessor, but with the GPSMap 60csx, Garmin shows us how it’s possible to turn great products into legendary ones. With effusive accolades from owners at Amazon, Epinions and elsewhere, it’s clear that Garmin has incorporated precisely the right enhancements into its “refresh” of the 60cs to make the 60csx a truly outstanding, best-in-class handheld unit, so much so that we’ve bestowed it our top rating of 5 stars.
