e-trx Legend
This was a great gift. I like it because it is waterproof and I snowmobile a lot. It was kind of a pain to figure out since I use a Mac, you have to do the initial set-up on a PC although you can buy downloads on a Mac. I purchased the Michigan snowmobile trails maps from an after market company that is product specific and am very happy with the system. The brightness keeps dropping down to 0 every time I turn it off so I have to readjust the brightness. I don't like the fact that it takes batteries, It would be a lot nicer if it had a built in battery, but I also understand for long trex's where are you going to charge it ? The batteries last about 6 hours if on constantly and utilizing otherwise on and off for several days. I also purchased the case and handlebar mount for my ATV & snowmobile, I haven't received those items yet. I fill you in when I do.

Nice product, but didn't work for my needs.
I got over the small screen because the color and detail was so much better than my old one. And it very quickly locked onto satellites, even inside my house, which my old one could not do.
But I needed it to transfer live GPS data to my laptop, running Terrain Navigator software to record the track, in my four-wheel-drive vehicle as I explored back roads in Arizona. It would work for a few minutes and then would freeze. I spent a lot of time with tech support and finally returned it. I went back to my old Magellan GPS as it worked OK.
But otherwise I really liked this new Garmin.

do not buy this unit
I have been trying to unlock the city navigator NT that was purchased with this unit. I have tried everything I know. The web site is terrible and trying to email product support does not work. Buy something else. This is terrible.

Not the Vista
Interesting story ... but I'll keep it short. I bought an E-Trex Vista Hcx back in March, but lost it on my very first kayaking trip in September! Well, I liked it so much, I ordered another one ... very pleased that I was able to save $40 on the one I purchased in March. But, when it came in the mail, I noticed it was a different color. Anyway, I eventually realized I had made a bone-headed mistake and purchased an eTrex "Legend" Hcx instead of the "Vista." No wonder it was cheaper! Anyway, I'm still very happy with the Legend and the only difference, that I can tell, is the Legend doesn't have the Barometric Altimeter or the Electronic Compass (which means you don't have to be moving to get a reading). Four stars instead of five only because it seems the Legend Hcx doesn't find satellites as quickly as the Vista Hcx ... but that just may be my particular unit. On the positive side, when I called Garmin and explained my story, they gave me another unlock code for my City Navigator NT 2008. I was very pleased with Garmin's customer service and the fact that I didn't have to spend another $100ish on a map.
