+FaxFam Posted December 3, 2009 Share Posted December 3, 2009 http://www.woot.com/ Today only. Seems like a pretty sweet unit. Just bought one for my mother-in-law. Took her out geocaching over thanksgiving and now she's hooked! Quote Link to comment
urupanther Posted December 4, 2009 Share Posted December 4, 2009 They sold out fast. Now you can find some for cheap in Amazon.com (cheapest one goes for around $150), or try to get one from eBay by winning an auction. I bought one for myself and another one as a Christmas gift, they are great! These are new in box units, and L L Bean sells them for $500. Quote Link to comment
+Knight2000 Posted December 8, 2009 Author Share Posted December 8, 2009 (edited) There's a W00T-off today. It looks like they'll be available for another hour at the rate they are selling. Edited December 8, 2009 by Knight2000 Quote Link to comment
+DudleyGrunt Posted December 9, 2009 Share Posted December 9, 2009 My Bushnell ONIX 400 came in the mail today from Woot. Now, I'll have to play with it and see how it works. Still interested if anyone else has used one or what others that bought one think. Quote Link to comment
+notsoSecretAgentMan Posted December 10, 2009 Share Posted December 10, 2009 Still interested if anyone else has used one or what others that bought one think. Got mine in the mail yesterday. Hope to try it out this afternoon. First thoughts: Wow, for something so HUGE, this thing actually feels good in my hand. Balance seems OK. Not sure I like how the on-screen text keyboard works. The plastic cover over the charger/PC connection has got to be the worst design EVER. At least connect it to the body of the GPSr.. Quote Link to comment
+fatjimmy Posted December 11, 2009 Share Posted December 11, 2009 I to received mine today... It will be a Christmas gift to myself.. Needless to say My wife says I have to wait like the kids. LOL So I need you all's help. I am a little new at Geo Caching. I tried it out with inferior equipment a couple summers ago. I love it. But not enough money to get a real GPS. I go the ONIX off Woot. I am dying to use it. How can I just download the waypoint off the Geocache site right into the GPS?? I did install the software so I can get prepared to launch on Christmas day. Do I have to load each on individually???? Please help... My son is excited to do this too... Thanks Quote Link to comment

+doug4566 Posted March 3, 2010 Share Posted March 3, 2010 Don't get discourged.. They are a pain to learn and watch the "crosshair" if you move them it will throw you off cords. the sat page works great to get started. Quote Link to comment
+fatjimmy Posted March 4, 2010 Share Posted March 4, 2010 I got my Onix 400 and Hated it. too difficult to use for Geo Caching. So I bought a delorme pn40 and love it. I only wish it had the size screen the onix has. That is the only thing I like about the onix is the size of the screen. loading caches was a pain in the arse on the onix. Gps babel did adapt their program to use on it. but, by then I had been using the PN 40 Quote Link to comment
