Date of Review:  Jun 5, 2002

Its become my friend and hiking companion!!!

Date of Review:  Feb 3, 2006
The Bottom Line: I'm devoted. I don't like to go out without my Vista C except to work, to homes of close friends and to nearby businesses.
Review: I'm grateful I felt an urge to to try the Garmin Color Vista C after nearly abandonning the whole handheld GPS (Global Positioning Systems) endeavor.

SOLID NAVIGATIONAL ASSISTANCE AND BEYOND

The device has been a sheer delight,...
