I used it to do some geocaching the last couple days and it has worked great. Ive pretty much had it on for three days straight and the batteries just died, which doesnt really mean much to me because i have nothing to compare it with... I noticed that the back cover wasnt sitting on the unit properly so i called garmin and they said that it has been redesigned and sent me a new one for free without any questions (which was awesome, but i have to pay duty taxes which sucks).. Ive been trying to get the free topo that this dude from calgary has released for canada but it has been a major pain being that i am a mac user.... i kind of regret not getting the delorme pn40 as it has an all you can eat buffet of maps for 30$ a year where garmin is charging 150 per map download for north america (150 for the road map, 150 for the topo, 150 for......) which is kind of crazy! im just not sure how the delorme is for caching!
