The GPSMAP 60 is monochrome and harder to see in sunlight, will get poor reception under canopy and won’t accept maps (and there are lots of free maps at http://gpsfiledepot.com ).

I already have a nuvi. I need it for waypoints/breadcrumbs, speed (max, slowest, average), distance. Also, I'm now due to economy low budget. I was looking at this unit (venture HC) and this Garmin GPSMap 60. I like that the 60 has long battery life. Which of these is preferred? Both get good reviews at Amazon. Anything else I should consider? I’m looking a good basic handheld gps that I can use for multiple purposes (kayaking, camping, hiking, biking, xc skiing, skateboarding) . I already have a nuvi.
