A lot in a compact size
I've had it for a few weeks and like it very much. Its satellite connections are amazing, I can even connect in my living room. Though the screen size is small, it is very clear and easy to read.

Not very impressive
I hopped this would be better, but I wound up returning it. The interface was very outdated, and slow. There's a noticeable delay in loading even basic maps as you scroll around with your finger.

Disappointed Geocacher
