It will do ok for Geocaching; however, I don't recommend the eX110. I have all of the Outdoor models made by Magellan, hence being a Beta Tester and I don't recommend the eX110 for a couple of reason. The first is that it is limited to only 500 Geocaches where the GC and eX310 can hold 10,000. Almost, the sorting capabilities and other functionality of the eX110 is extremely limited. Personally, I would pay the extra few dollars to buy the eX310 over both the eX110 and/or the GC. David Magellan Insider Quote Link to comment

Local store just went bankrupt. Quite sad, family owned but I picked it up for 50$. Figured lots of positive reviews and for that cheap why not? Quote Link to comment

For $50.00 it would be worth picking a couple of them up. They are good little GPSrs. Actually, they are the exactly same unit as the GC and eX310, except they limited the software. The biggest thing you will find is that it is annoying having to deal with the 500 cache limit; but it can be done!!! David Magellan Insider Quote Link to comment
+gpsblake Posted October 15, 2013 Share Posted October 15, 2013 The hardware for the 110 is identical to the GC and 310. Magellan simply put 3 different versions of firmware on the same unit to maximize sales. You can always make a 110 into a GC or a 310 using a few tricks. (just search a few threads here on how to do it). Quote Link to comment
