Good For Everyone, Hiking, Driving, and Fishing.

by deschmann , Sep 28, 2006
Pros: Expandable Memory, Color Screen, Brightness Settings, Electronic Compass, Barometer, and adequate basemaps
Cons: Packaged Software could be better, need to purchase additional maps from Garmin to unlock potential
The Bottom Line: I recommend this unit to people excited about using the GPS system who are looking for an expandable unit that does a little bit of everything.
This reviewer recommends this product.
Review: Overview: I purchased this unit in July 2006 to be used for a variety of tasks. I wanted to use it for street maps when driving in different cities I have to visit for work. I wanted to use it for hiking and geocaching when I was at home, or...

See new vistas with the Vista Cx!

by americanbear , Jul 23, 2007
Pros: Good performance, feature loaded, durable in most regards, easy to read, electronic compass.
Cons: No way to disable barometric altimeter, kinda ugly, expensive maps
The Bottom Line: I'd strongly suggest looking at the competition as well, but that doesn't make this a less excellent product! It is definitely an extremely flexible little device~
This reviewer recommends this product.
Review: Explore new worlds, see new vistas, and experience new adventures

This unit is Garmin's high-end handheld GPS receiver. I'll start by saying that I do regret buying it and that I wish I had bought one of the Magellan units instead...
