Etrex GPS

Howdy. These Etrex GPS devices, are they any good? Easy to upload maps? I'm looking at the HC colour screen model.

 

They have a really cheap price tag but seem well made. Do they have a good reputation? I won't be going to far out, would mainly use it to store spots and avoid reef.

garmin make great handhelds , i heard they are used by the defense services

i got the cheapest one with no mapping , but it's great for fishing or camping spots.

If I spent half as long fishing , as I do reading this bloody forum , I'd be twice the fisherman I am.

Check out the GPS map 60CSX

Check out the GPS map 60CSX it is slightly large and has the buttons down the bottom in sight opposed to the etrex GPS, which has the buttons on the top and sides. The CSX stands for colour screen and expandable memory so you can load external maps from an SD card. I have a Magellen Triton and that is pretty good to use too.
