 Great little golf GPS July 18, 2008
I've used the Sonocaddie on two courses -- my home course and another public course nearby. I found the distances downloaded off their site were accurate. It is fun being able to measure how far your drives go on each hole as well.
My only criticisms:
1. you need a windows PC for downloading course info. I have two macs now, and thankfully I was able to resurrect my old PC specifically for this purpose.
2. the characters on the main hole screen are a bit small.
Other than that it's a great deal. and it has helped my game tremendously knowing exact distances. Shot under 80 three times since I got this device!
 Incomplete July 5, 2008
I have had my Sonocaddie for about 3 days and can't get it to download any courses! I can log in to the website, but that's about as far as I got. The instructions are fuzzy and incomplete for those who aren't computer savvy. The frustration is that I ordered the unit to use over the 4th of July Holiday, and when I ran into problems, upon contacting Sonocadie I found they were closed for the week due to the holiday. Not much help here. I did however get to log in and when I found the course I play about 40% of my rounds at wasn't mapped, so I sent in a request to "get er done". Well, the response was that it isn't in their GPS base, and they can't plot the course, but that I could do it with my hand held unit (which I can't get to work). So, why would I pay to do it myself? So now what? Well, I am hoping to be able to return the unit for a refund. The lessons learned are that if I have to go through this kind of expense and frustration just to of get accurate distance, I'll stick with sprinkler heads and yardage markers and instead of GPS, use the money on lessons or equipment that you can really use without a computer!!!
 just buy the thing June 14, 2008
this thing rocks, very easy to use, i sent in a request to add a scorecard to a course download and they did it in 3 days! Screen is easy to read in all light conditions and Im getting about 7 rounds out of each set of batteries.

The Sonocaddie XV2 is a great little GPS. Does everything you want it to do, and the best part is no membership fees, etc. The only thing they could improve upon is the download process. It seems a bit more cumbersome than it could be. Other than that I love it and recommend highly.

The Sonocaddie was recommended because of its good battery life, which it has. It's easy enough to use and is very useful on the course. However, course availability is very poor. They do not have my home course mapped, and tell me it is not going to happen unless I map it myself. What's worse, many good Florida and Hawaii courses are not mapped. I have no use for it and plan to return it if it's not too late.
