A good moderate priced small GPS unit with the necessities.

by spacehiker Thursday, January 24, 2008
Pros : Small, light weight, good (but not excellent) reception, great battery life, reasonable price.
Cons : Low quality base map, wish the screen were slightly larger, not good for driving.
Review : I have owned my Etrex Vista Cx for about a year now and have had many amazing adventures with it. Ga
The Bottom Line : A good economical choice for outdoor types with all the features you need, but also compare the HCx version for better reception. Not recommended for driving.

by bfsdfl Friday, December 22, 2006
Pros : Large, bright display. Just-right form factor. Easy to learn (with or without the manual).
