My wife and I started recently geocacheing. I now use a Magellan Meridian, buty possibly looking to upgrade. I have been looking at these models and any input would be appreciated. Thanks

I have the 60csx its great, i believe the 60cx doesnt have the compass. I use that feature alot. Not sure about the others. Ebay has some good deals on gps r also. Got mine for 260.00 included all cords external antenna extra card and dash mount. And if you can get the premium membership from here its worth every penny!

There are a lot of very good geocaching units that are WAY less expensive than the 60csx ($300) or the Oregon ($500).

Scratch the Triton. Everybody I know who bought one returned it and there are numerous complaints about the line over in the GPS and Technology forum.

The Oregan is the top of the line geocaching unit. It does paperless, has an electric compass, large screen, color, mapping, road dirrections...the possibilities are endless. Although this is all nice, it can be a bit expensive though. If you're looking for the details, the oregan unites are at the top of this page.

I've heard the 60cx is a bit more bang for your buck. The satelite reception is just fantastic. Unfortunately it dosn't have an electronic compass. The specs for this unit can be found here.

I agree with brainsnat about the Trioton. I've heard nothing good about it.

 

Lastly, you may want to consider posting this topic in the GPS technology board. It's not a must, just a suggestion. You may get a bit more experience there. Enjoy!
