+gdps Posted September 8, 2006 Share Posted September 8, 2006 As an owner of a 500 and two other magellan's before that, both with out color screens I say yes the color is worth it. Quote Link to comment
NickfromWI Posted September 8, 2006 Share Posted September 8, 2006 GDPS- can you explain why? What are the advantages? Quote Link to comment
+gdps Posted September 8, 2006 Share Posted September 8, 2006 Mostly the visability of the features on the screen. I think it is better in sunshine also. I use TOPO maps on mine, the contour lines are much easier to pick out on the color. If you do a search for 500 and color you will get several other topics that have been discussed previously on here. Quote Link to comment
+groovetopia Posted September 8, 2006 Share Posted September 8, 2006 definitely more visible in the sun and easier to discern features on the maps - especially with contour lines and the different kinds of caches - I don't think I would get one without color - but that's what I'm used to.
