One tough GPS.....
There are several good GPS manufacturers, and many models on the market today. I've owned this GPS for several years now, it's an incredible device. Homes in quickly, "burns" through forest canopy (even the roof of my house), have accidentally run over it with my road bike, dropped it in the lake, you name it, I've done it. And it keeps working. I have the Topo USA (1:100,000 scale) DVD, it's invaluable to me as a wilderness "tripper" (canoe, kayak, backpack). You can't go wrong with this GPS.
