THIS PRODUCT HAS LOTS OF SOFTWARE PROBLEMS. IN ADDITION, THE U.S. MAPPING SOFTWARE THAT COST $88.00 DOES NOT COMPLETELY DOWNLOAD.

We have a wildlife consulting firm and often send Biologists and technicions into remote areas to collect data. The Garmin 60CSx is everyone's favorite for pinpointing where they are and providing location data for the record. Reliable, accurate and easy to pack.

OK, OK, I'm not going to talk about all the incredible features with this GPS. The last 300 or so reviews did that plenty. I am only going to talk about the last week and what I went through trying to find the "Pefect" GPS for me. I have been using a Magelleon Meridium Platnium for 6 years. It has been a wonderful GPS, but it is time to upgrade and get up to date features. Perhaps I can save someone some time and frustration. Over the past six days, I have bought and returned 4 seperate GPS units, a Magelleon 2000 Triton, a Garmin Colorado, a Bushnell Onix 400 and a Delorme PN20. The Magelleon locked-up for good after two minutes, done, kapoot. The Delorme had cool maps and aerial imagry, but the "area calculation" feature that they advertise, (and that I need for work) is not usable on the unit, in the field. It does me no good to require a laptop computer and tons of software to do something a handheld GPS should be able to do alone. Also, the buttons felt a bit cheap on the Delorme. The Garmin Colorado 400T looked and felt cool, and the wheel was a novel idea, but several things cause a return as well. First, the screen was dark, so much so that even on full brightness, I kept trying to turn it up even more. Second, the data entry was a PAIN. The wheel is used for all character entry, it is very time consuming. Next..after doing the area calculation, it initially gave an "acre" reading, but as soon as you log it and put it in memory, it diverts ONLY to square feet after you recal it. Although I did stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night, I still can't convert 176,000 square feet to acres in my head! Why they did this is beyond me. A third and "Nail in the coffin" for the 400T was the fact that I could NEVER get the Garmin site to recognize the GPS while registering. This step is required to download Geocaches. I hit a wall and couldn't get over it. The Bushnell 400 box was cool and intriging, and the discounted price was unbelievable, (I know why now). The price tag said 499, on sale for 199! WOW, well, heck, I'll give it a try. Worthless piece of junk. No maps, and impossible to download. The website was 100% unservicable. I couldn't even get the curser to move on it. NOTHING worked right on this hunk a junk. After coming back to REI again, (thank goodness for the return policy) an astute (and cute) female worker advised me about the Garmin Mapgps 60csx. I had never looked at this model before. Not really sure why, but it had never really caugh my eye. It was marked $399, but to my suprise, today only (Memorial Day sale) it was $299. NICE! (Thanks REI!) So I picked up the unit and the US TOPO DVD ($100). Without going into massive detail, all I will say is that the computer interface and Topo map loading went very well. Very easy to load maps. I bought a 512 MB micro SD card and I can put over a quarter of the US Topos on this card. I love this GPS, it doeas everything I need it to do and even more!!!!!! BEST GPS AROUND!!!

My friend told me about the Garmin GPSMap 60CSx 2.6-Inch Mapping Handheld GPS. I have been checking many models and found that this was the easiest and the best for my latest fun activity of geocaching. My Grandsons 9 and 11 are learning at the same time I am and we are having a great time exploring new places, getting exercise, and finding hidden treasures.
The color monitor is easy to see and distance and direction formats can be understood by beginning users. A USB cord is provided to connect to the USB port on a computer. This allows downloading from the PC to the GPS. The only thing that could be considered a minus is the lack of voice sound which would be useful when traveling by vehicle.
