  1. I actually got the USB adapter, but it is so old i gotta use EasyGPS and I kinda wated to be lazy and use it right from the site, and the color is kinda cool, it adds altimeter and I still keep the compass is the price good, $150?
  2. just to confirm is the Garmin 60 CSX a good unit to go with right now I have the Magellen Maridian Gold and it does very good but I wanted to go color and USB is $150 a good price?
  3. I need to see if there is any organized club/organization in San Antonio? I would like to possibly come on a caching mission with you guys sometime
  4. the only real problem I see with it, is that it has no compass, but for $65 I would be interested
  5. the best GPS unit is the one that you can afford
  6. well I got it to work, I downloaded EasyGPS and it connects and I use it, the software on the forum, is meant for the newer units so mine wont connect, it isnt because of the cable, it is the software.
  7. lol...yeah but I gotta save up...i will and I guess just wait
  8. I have the driver for it, I can see it when I plug it in them pull it out, but no communication between the comp and GPS I like this unit but I guess I am gonna have to get a newer unit if I wanna start caching again
  9. ok here is the problem I have a Magellen Meridian Gold, it sonnects serial to the computer I don't want to insert my SD card, download then have to re-insert my SD card into the GPS I have a newer comp with no serial connections and I am trying to use a 9 serial to USB I was given by the guy I bought the GPS from about 3 years ago the GPS connected great via serial to my old computer, but not to my new computer via USB any suggestions will a serial to USB adapter actuallu work or was the guy smoking crack
  10. Thank you. I updated it. Sorry for the trouble. It is the GPS Status & Toolbox and I love it! https://market.android.com/details?id=com.eclipsim.gpsstatus2 sweet thanks do you guys think the geocahing app will work well with my LG Optimus S
  11. are you able to fing what you are looking for pretty well?
  12. would it be say...as accurate as my Magellen Meridian Gold? if it would does it have abarametric altimeter? compus? If so I will buy it and start looking for more caches...please let me know your observations
  13. or is their site just down, I wanted to get in touch with them, it has been a while since i have gone caching and wanted to speak and possibly meet up with some people
  14. yup all the reviews say send it back, or the updates arent happening, or they wish they had never bought the darn thing because it is junk... not 1 good review that i can find
  15. a color unit for $99, that is great, i am also wondering...
  16. i used mu Nuvi 200 for a few, and it works, but remember to change ot to pedestrian and off road mode each time and then it will work kinda well but the no compass bothered me so i got a Magellan Meridian Gold, it is B/W but has a compass, it sucks at streets but is water proof and rugged as all heck, and is much better suited for geocaching, it was used and i got it for $50 with all the accessories, so get both! buy the Nuvi (new) and get a used Magellan, it works well for me
  17. that is a great price, i would keep it for sure, it has great features
  18. I am amazed the Iphone app is as accurate as it is...I am impressed I don't have an IPhone but glad to hear it
  19. Does it stay in place if you stomp on the gas from a dead stop? good question ...lol
