Comments about Garmin geko 301 GPS:

I've owned 4 GPS units and this is by far the best. It has everything you need and nothing you don't in a 3.5 oz package. I am never without a hardcopy map and use the gps to pinpoint a set of coordinates and elevation. I have had GPS units with built in maps and found the maps to suffer greatly in accuracy compared to the regular USPS 7.5 minute series. The battery life is great. I am somewhat disappointed that this class of receiver is not more popular. I guess it means most people want the useless maps the more expensive receivers offer.
