by the looks of it you can change the data fields in the legend too, customize customize and customize some more

sorry for miss lead. i just went to get a link kaqaq and they don't have a case for it. i guess its to new a unit

no according to the manual all data is saved whether there is batteries in it or not. i just finished reading the manual too and can't wait to use it

not sure where you guys are from but i saw a case that would let you use it while it in. i'm from ontario canada. check out www.lebaron.ca unfortunatly they don't show a pic of it but it shows prices and you could call for more info. just my 2 cents

hey thanks wasn't sure on that one.

was just wondering what north gc.com uses whether it is true or magnetic north. just tryin to set up the new unit

well thanks for all the comments i just went out and got the legend for under $200 cdn. score! cheers

there specials arn't on there site, gotta call to get prices. thats how i found out about it

just thought i should let people know that Lebaron outdoor store has a sale on all gps units. the sale is only this week as far as i know. Lebarons has three locations in ontario, i went to the mississauga store. i got a etrex legend for 229.94 plus the mail in rebate so its 200. not to bad as far as i'm concerned. other units on too 60c is 100 cheaper right now and so on. check out the web for phone numbers and locations. www.lebarons.ca cheers

good question, the extrex series has been around for a while. i think to get a good answer to the question it would be wise to ask the people at garmin. there is a link on the website for inquires like that. i'm interested in that answer too as i am also looking at gettin a extrex legend

i'm looking at getting my first gps unit and would like to know which on to get. i have thought about the etrex lengend and the sportrak map. which is better or is there somthing else i should consider that is in the same price range. as its my first unit i don't want to go all out. although i would like to use the maps and be able to use it in my car and in the back crountry. i live in a populated city which is why i want mapping cheers!

hey thanks binrat

to the user who talked about bearing mode. is there a function on the gps that gives you a bearing you are headed and all you have to do is set this on a standard compass and they match bearing. (no math or anything to do like you have do with getting the declination off a paper map for the first time)

hey thanks for all the info. so far most people have disscused my concerns with antenna and "qlick stick".

back again with another gps unit question. got a lot of feed back about etrex lengend. what about the magellan sportrak map. or any others in that price range cheers

just gettin into geocaching. is a etrex legend worth getting. also lookin for a group event in the hamilton ontario area to get started

ya thanks must have been updating while you where typing message

hey thanks for the info i live in ontario canada, i guess there's no profiles in here but my profile in geocaching.com says it.

looking at getting a gps unit for both backcrountry navigating and geocaching. was wondering if the Etrex legend is a good unit. also looking for a partner for my first few hunts, check my profile for my location. thanks. rogue_monkey
