Foretrex 101 a nice unit

Date of Review:  Mar 3, 2005
The Bottom Line: Good for basic, general purpose/sporting GPS, with track storage, PC linkable and basic feature set. Battery life limits it somewhat.
Review: A reasonably compact unit, I have no problem wearing it on my wrist whilst out running. Great when MTB-ing.

Easy to use, storage of your track information & waypoints is useful. Basic plot of your track on-screen great to backtrack or get...

Review: I like to mountain bike, cycle ride, triathlons, hike and other outdoor sports. This little GPS has been able to handle the load of all of these. Love all the features. I read that this little gem loses signals a lot, huh? I use it in northern Az in...

Awesome

Date of Review:  May 11, 2007
Review: Well, not perfect, but by far the best small GPS.
The wrist strap is small and bulky. Just replace it with a normal sports watch strap.

Uses 2 normal AAA batteries - even the high capacity NiMH (important if you need more battery...

Garmin makes a great new product!

Date of Review:  Jun 27, 2006
Review: Hey,
This little inexpensive GPS is great. It picked up satellites even in NYC and that's not easy. Waypoints are easy to add. I think folks familiar with Garmin and the terms they use to control their GPS's will be happy to know they did not...

Excellent low-cost compact unit, perfect for yacht racing

Date of Review:  May 12, 2005
Review: Compact, versatile, and highly-usable GPS at a very affordable price. Wrist mounting leaves your hands free for activities. Sufficiently waterproof to be used in bad weather and in many water sports (e.g., boating). Excellent display with...
