Forgot to mention, I'm all in favor of the built in barometer!!! I'm no luddite afterall. later chris

I'm been an eTrex user for quite a while (6 years). I've used an old ETrex Vista (with a compass) and and eTrex Summit and eTrex Legend Cx (both without the compass). Personally I don't need the compass, it requires more power (only slightly more though) and it needs frequent recal (both for batteries and major location changes), and in my opinion, doesn't force people to learn the basics. I'm no luddite, but do yourself a favor and buy a good Silva. (http://www.silvacompass.com/p-43-trekker-420.aspx) It needs no batteries and will teach you the basics of overland navigation (knowing your declination, reading a map, etc...) BE PREPARED. My $0.02.

I agree clustering was a nice addition. Why was the clustering removed? I actually liked it. Was it a bug, or was it originally supposed to be a new feature?
