Hand Held GPS

Pulled the trigger on A hand held unit. Its A Maggelan Triton 200. Dont know how to operate it yet just playing around. Does anyone else have this unit? Need some feedback on it. I only bought this one because it was on sale for A hundred bucks....Andy

Ive looked into that unit. Lots of cool features. Let us know how it works out for you, I may end up buying one after I hear some more good reviews on it.

Sent the Maggelan packing didnt like very much so I purchased A Garmin E-Trex Legend!!!So far I like it and I know A few of you have one. Whats the feed back like? Do I need to buy all the software for it?

My legend lasted about 14 months before the entire screen went black and became useless. If you buy software that lets you upload gps points to a pc I got a twelver for you if you can help me get some of my waypoints back.

My etrex legend has been working fine for several years now.  I haven't really used it to the limits of it's capabilities though. 

I once thought I'd toasted a garmin GPS but later found that I'd accidentally adjusted the contrast all the way up.  Look into that for the blacked out one. 

lol, how do I navigate the screen if I can't see it? 

I have the garmin 60 csx and love it. On these rainy (not so fishable ) days i use it to go explore new fishing spots, and see whats near by .Pretty nice and easy to use.Also helps me find a warm meal afet a long day fishing in new areas.

I love my 60csx but it doesn't float.

I have a garmin and i bought the chip too. i like it alot. i have had it about 2yrs. i highly reccomend buying one of the see-thru waterproof cases at cabelas.com. keep the salt off.

Read the manual to see how to adjust the contrast and try to do it blind.  I think I had to briefly depress the power button than up and down on the joystick would adjust the contrast.
