Thanks for the input. I may regret my INITIAL decision as I purchased a MAGELLAN TRITON 200. Heard a lot of horror stories but given that there is a never firmware update I thought I would give it a try as a "re-entry" into the GPS/GEOCACHE community. I plan to continue looking for another and definately like the support and expandability (ease of by the user and community) of the GARMIN products. Just have to decide WHICH ONE. Thanks again to all of your input.

So, I have been out of geocaching for about 2 years and had sold my GPS unit that I previously had. I want to start Geocaching again AND am going to be goin to the BAHAMAS in a few weels. Is there a GPS that is best suited for use in the BAHAMAS as well as here in the US? Any help is appreciated.

Growth in those areas still doesn't make the snotty attitudes and comments about their dislike for the state any more justified or (in my opionion) acceptable. BUT ----- I am done with this thread, caching is a sport that is meant for fun, exercise (for me anyway) and maybe some other things depending on who you are and what it means to you. I'm getting back to caching.... enough of the geopolitical junk. See ya in in the jungle.

BELOW is a reply to an earlier post not to GPS_Brian: Ah, but see... you just moved there.... and you most likely don't REALLY want to live there, or don't like things about it.... I never said there weren't hillbillies in the panhandles. I was referring to the "foreigners" aka "out of staters" and their offspring that have been transplanted here. Got a chip on my shoulder?? DaRnEd tooting I do. You know the old saying.... if you don't like it here ------- LEAVE!! But to reply to GPS_Brian: Maybe we should just take all the unwanted parts of these states and make a new one, or another district. That way, the states get rid of em and they can go out on their own and maybe do better.

OK... here's my take... I have always heard the statement that was mention my someone else about "most northern of the southern and most southern of the northern states" and I will agree with that 100% BECAUSE of the mason dixon line. No, we never stopped drinking moonshine and never will. The folks that live in the 2 panhandles aren't REALLY west virginians anyway (most of them are from the surrounding states and work there) and they sure don't seem to care for the fact that they DO live here and wish they didn't. Or at least that is the impression I always get from them when "I crawl outta my shanty in the holler, kiss my hound dog, scrape me a possom off the road for breakfast, and walk my shoeless feet up yonder to holler at them thar folks". I have always thought the state would be better off to sell the panhandles to neighboring states. We would save money and get rid of the people that don't consider themselves WVians anyway (or do but really AREN'T). Heck, unless you live in one of the panhandles, when was the last time you heard a news story about something going on there?

Well... I seem to be an oddball in the group here..... Everbody else is using GARMIN and MAGELLAN... I use the LOWRANCE iFinder
