 Great GPS unit! December 30, 2005
15 out of 15 found this review helpful
I have been using this unit for about a week now. In a word, it is awesome. It acts as a flash drive when connected via the included usb cable. You can access all the files stored on the unit in this way. Apparently, most gps units only have serial connections and must use proprietary software to upload files. (I am very happy that I don't have to deal with that on this unit.) Also, the geocaching points feature is very nice. I simply use the included software to convert my .gpx file to the .gs used by the unit. This lets you carry the coordinates, person who places the cache, last found, hint, etc info with you. I think the only thing missing is the "description" field. However, I don't know if any gps unit will show that field. In most cases, you don't need that field anyway. I have used the unit to log about 20 cache finds so far. In any case, I highly recommend this unit.

I bought this item for my son, a third year electrical engineer student at the U of A. My brother, who has owned 3 GPS systems, tried for 3 days to use this product. It would not perform any of the operations they tried. It would not even turn off. They used every available source of help to get this product off and running. It was such a dissappointment to our family. I would not recommend anyone buy this item.

I have owned the Explorist 210 for 3 weeks and have no complaints. The accompanying Geocache Manager is simplistic but effective for loading geocache data into the GPS. It certainly beats entering it by hand like the 200 and 100 models require. The unit is light and the dual level amber backlight is effective in low light situations. I have not taxed the reported 22M of memory yet. I bought this unit specifically for geocaching and it definitely fills the bill.
