Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - I like it, but it's hard to get to know
This is a remarkable unit - the way that it reads through the trees in the woods - pretty impressive, but it is complicated (to me) to make it do all the things it's capable of. I got it for the enhanced reception and use just the "breadcrumb" trail, but it can do a whole lot more. So for those of you out there that need a unit that reads through forest cover on your weekend walks at the local state park, this is the one. You'll never get lost again. I like to go off-trail and haven't gotten lost ... Read More



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - go with something a little better
This thing takes FOR EVER TO LOAD!!! (5-20 min)
It also has no maps so dont count on trying to find trails or what route to take! The screen also has no back light so it in hard to use at night! The plus side is that it is very small and light and is good for starters.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Excellent minimalist GPS, but ...
I replaced a bigger, older, heavier Garmin GPS with this one for hiking - works great, and it's easy to carry and use.

I would add only one caveat - the serial port is covered by a thin rubber protector - and the second time I was pulling the separately-purchased adapter cable off, I tore the rubber in half. It was a non-Garmin cable, so maybe it was tighter than a real one would have been - and it was my fault - but just be careful in using the serial port.

Also, be aware ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - MUST HAVE for pilots
Are VORs a pain for you?
Do you hate the lag of your VSI?
Would you like to know your true heading and ground speed?
Does your G1000 have issues?

Pilots...this is a must have! It's always nice to have a backup for your instruments, and this $100 unit has saved me and my aircraft more than once. Sure, it's not FAA approved, but you can hide it in your pocket, so problem solved. It's easy to use, surprisingly accurate, has great reception inside GA aircraft, and fast.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - good for minimalists
I purchased the garmin geko 201 to use with my Nikon for geopositioning photos. It works nicely for this, but i feel that some of the features aren't intuitive. It is very simple and no frills. So, for basic information it's excellent.

I look forward to trying some geocaching with it in the future!
