5 out of 5 stars BUY IT!!!!!!!!!   June 26, 2008
Works perfect!
Great Battery life (30 hours on 2 rayovac AA)!
Awesome color screen!
Easy navigation in the menus!

Remember, this unit does not come with maps or a micro SD card. The SD card can be found on ebay for cheap (<$8) and some people have said maps can be found with a bittorent software (bitcomet.com) and thepiratebay.org.
I bought my maps at Garmin for $100/map.



5 out of 5 stars Garmin has the BEST GPS.   June 9, 2008
We purchased these four Garmins for our four grandchildren so that they could go geocaching this summer. We have purchased other Garmin GPSs and have been extremely pleased so Garmin was our choice. The eTrex Venture CX was the particular product we chose because if offered the long battery life, color display, compass, high number of way points and tracks and fantastic price. You can't beat Garmin on the road but especially for geocaching we have found them to be the best. From our own geocaching experiences we knew it was best for each player to have his own GPS - hence the purchase of four. These eTrex Venture CXs have continued our satisfaction with Garmin. Even the youngest at age 7 has no trouble using the device. The children had experienced geocaching in their school so their learning curve was less than for a person that had not had that experience, like me. I can do the functions but I'm slow. Still I have a lot of fun. A little more experience and there will be no stopping me.

This is a great product for any outdoors enthusiast. You can use it on the road - trail - water, provided that you have the map$. The only negative is that the base map is very limited. In order to get the full potential you need to buy a MicroSD card and the maps to go along. You can easily spend more on the maps than what you paid for the unit.


5 out of 5 stars Extremely Pleased! Great unit for an amazing price!   January 7, 2008
I was shocked at the accuracy of this unit, i was not expecting it to have this sort of precision. I got this gps for geocaching, road trips and hiking. Everything is so easy to use and almost self-explanatory. I have used all of it's features and haven't had to crack open the user's manual once!

I found this gps has the longest battery life of any I've seen, 36 Hours on just 2 AA's!! that was the deciding factor between this unit and a few others for me. I have been researching which unit to buy for months and i am very happy with my decision and at $170, what a steal!

This item has great promise but using it is not transparent. Be prepared to shlog through lots of instructions that are not altogether clear.
