 Excellent tracker March 26, 2008
This is my final GPS unit. It does what I want. It's easy to set and tracks quickly and efficiently.
Sure wish these things could see the satellites inside of buildings. I got it partly to find my car in mall parking lots, but it would also be handy to track back to the correct building entrance. Once it's moving around under roof, though, it can't track well, if at all.
I'd like it to have a lanyard hole, so I wouldn't always have to wear it on my wrist. I could use it as a key fob or have other options.
The computer interface cable has to be plugged in HARD to get it to connect. The Iogear USB to serial adapter cable works well with it.

Although no single navigational tool should ever be used alone (a backup compass, using landmarks, maps & common sense are always necessary), the Garmin Foretrex 101 wristmounted GPS Navigator really works to "bring you home". I used this GPS in the wetland hardwoods of the Cache River NWR in East-Central Arkansas. This refuge, together with the White River NWR are dense bottomland hardwoods of oak and cyprus trees and marshes. Once inside these massive forrests (80+ miles long at points) you can barely see the sky and can get lost almost immediatly. My Garmin GPS was a great comfort as I kept walking deeper & deeper into the woods. It's simple to use and always let me know exactly (within 30 ft) where and how far away may my car was. After exploring for hours, I simply entered "Go To" my #1 position (my car), and followed the arrow home. It was simple and really worked. I am still learning to program the unit on how to enter a Long.& Lat. off of a topographical map so it can guide me to the exact spot I am interested in exploring. Once I have mastered this last test, I will be confident to take on the world. Good Luck and enjoy this great navigational tool.

I OWN TWO OF THESE GARMIN GPS's. I USE THEM TO RECORD THE MAX SPEED OF MY REMOTE CONTROLLED CARS AND TRUCKS. MORE ACCURATE THAN RADAR. FOR THIS TYPE OF GPS GARMIN IS THE BEST.
Happy Garmin user with a problem January 12, 2008
The Foretrex is fine and I use it about an hour each day. Battery life is extra bad; about 9 hours on alkalines and 4 hours on rechargable NiCads. Unfortunately there is very little warning on low juice prior to shut down.

As a geographically challenged person I often get lost hiking through new areas and even have great difficulty locating my car in large parking lots. The Garmin worked exactly as advertised and has significantly reduced my walking/parking anxieties.
The "bread crumb" trail that appears on the screen has proved to be a simple and accurate way to retrace the route traveled and recently helped me find my way back after a 10 mile hike.
Battery life is good and I usually carry a couple of spare AAA batteries for safety. I'm glad it doesn't use rechargeable batteries which can be inconvenient to recharge.
The Garmin receives my unconditional recommendation. The price is reasonble, quality is good and performance is excellent.
