Couldn't stand it any longer. Just bought a Garmin Etrex-basic (on ebay $83 + Shipping), even though I shouldn't be spending the money. It should arrive Thursday AM. I think I feel a touch of the (GPS) flu coming. icon_biggrin.gif I think I'll definately have to call in sick Thursday & Friday icon_wink.gif .

 

Sorry, I just had to do a little happy dance.

i would say great purchase! i bought mine for hunting navigation several years ago.

 

one note of caution when dealing with the better half - you no longer can use the excuse that you got lost when you go in the woods with the boys!!

Congrats on the GPS! Just send the phone bill to the electric company and the electric bill to the phone company, that should buy you a week till your next paycheck.

icon_biggrin.gificon_biggrin.gificon_biggrin.gificon_biggrin.gif I know the feeling! I got mine a week and a half ago, a Garmin Etrex Legend. A buddy put in a few topo maps for me and I'll soon be getting the street map software. Wanna know the best part? In my line of work this little gadget can be a write off! I'll never be lost again, or if I am I can always get found.

 

Cache you later,
