Too slow to be useful.

Wish Lowrance was still supporting these, wish I could get the update map. Wish everything was free, :-)

Over last 4 years have used it extensively in car and on boat - aside from a bit slow acquiring satellites on start-up, it is a great tool. Very dependable and pretty danged accurate! Easy use (wife who hates electronics picked it up and started using it without instructional help - now I hardly get to use it.... )

I have just started geocaching and agree that it is slow but, I must say it is very user friendly

Things I like: -It's a good car navigator. -Internal LiIon battery. -Can be set for street navigation or straight-line nav for geocaching / boating. -Super cheap nav charts for the boat. Get the whole USA for $80. Garmin wants $200 just for a couple of states(!) -Manually enter Lat/Long (Try doing that on another car nav GPS) -Use with ExpertGPS or GeoBuddy on the PC to convert LOC or GPX files from geocaching.com to USR files to save onto the GPS. Put hundreds of geocaches on the GPSr without typing anything. Things I don't like: -It takes a while to get a satellite fix. Same problem on every Lowrance I've owned. :-( -Seems to have accuracy problems when you're close to the geocache. It'll get you within 50ft of it, but you're on your own after that.
