Looking at the price difference, it's $25.00. You can find a really nice hand compass for that. For me it's a Wife Acceptance Factor (WAF). We have a good compass and a Legend currently. When I went to order our new GPS (I knew I wanted an H series) she said, "Make sure you get one with a compass." The reason? She hates me having the bag with the compass in it when she decides she needs to give me a heading. This way we will both have a compass, and she only needs th GPS.

My wife and I always have our laptop with us when we cache. We use ClayJar Watcher and Streets and Trips 2004 to find locations, find parking and do driving directions to the site. We love to use moving map to track where we are, but setting up the Garmin Legend to do this takes time and eats battery life. We still have to have a handheld to get to the cache itself, and leave the laptop in the car while we hike to the cache. I've just ordered this package and will report in full when we have it and have cached with it a bit.
