I already performed the update. Sorry I didn't note the version it came with, it is now: Software version 3.10 GPS Software Version 3.7 843mb free with a couple GPX files on.

Accuracy is good compared to my legend. Ease of use is good. Everything you need to Geocache is there although the steps once on the map are a little clumsy to me so far to find details and such. I will try to make a short video this weekend going through the interface for a GC and post a link.

Ok, since I have the pleasure of making an upgrade from a Garmin Legend I thought I would post my experience. I ordered from GPSzone.ca and it was at our house by the second day after I ordered. Please note my comments are in comparison to my legend experience. Once the GPSr knew which sats to use it fired up so quickly I was quite amazed. Inside the truck it has stable solid coverage and barely reduces accuracy compared to the legend where I had varied results inside the cab. The paperless geocaching is a dream come true although I havent quite found the right order of the steps in the interface the way I would like it to work. I like to have the compass guide me and it seems the default is to bring up the map. The photos above are in bright winter sunshine and I found the screen very readable. The screen protector went on a little poorly which explains some of the imperfections. The base map is much the same as the Legend but with colour. I don't seem to have the gradient maps shown in the screen shots. My next task is to see how easily I can make use of my purchased Garmin Topos from a year ago and look into Blue Charts for the lakes I take to in the summer. I will post any other findings as I come across them but all in all I am very happy with my expensive purchase. - Dale
