Just bought one. Looked like a great deal since most web sites selling this model are asking $350-$500! Can't wait to try it out. Does anyone have any hands on experience with this thing? I pulled down the manual for it but there aren't any specific instructions for using it to geocahce (other that it's on of the six user modes you can set it to). I would like to know if anyone has any experience with the unit's accuracy and its ease of use (or lack of).

As commented on in previous threads, the Bushnell ONIX units are not Geocaching friendly.

Good luck with that. As far as I know, neither GPSBabel nor EasyGPS are capable of transferring waypoints to these units. Few people use the ONIX, so the third-party software developers do not support them.
