Garmin GPS?

[obone]

Hey all!

I’m looking to invest in a GPS in the near future and am doing a bit of research on them. So far, it seems that the Garmin Colorado is a good choice. Seems to have everything I’m looking for a GPS to do, such as mapping, big screen, altitude, geocaching, speed, tracking etc. Has anyone had any experience with these? Like getting maps for QLD etc.?

And for arguments sake, say money wasn’t an issue, what would everyone suggest in that situation. Just interested.

I run 2 GPS's, a simple Garmin 76, and a PDA with GPS included so I can run software that lets you load your own maps.

For fishing mostly the 76 gets the nod, for car work, the PDA gets the nod. The PDA is worth $2000

Obone, I have this one https://buy.garmin.com/shop/shop.do?cID=161&pID=351

It's a good unit and the charts for around here are good. I'm happy with it.

The Colorado looks better and has a slightly larger screen and more compact body.
