RE: paleonet Eurpean GPS



Hi,

There are some good GPS devices which are fairly easy to use and have good
capabilities. Those I will be pointing are only from Garmin, because these
are the only ones I am familiar with. More info at www.garmin.com


The first thing you should know is that the quality of location is somewhat
independent of the price of the GPS.
I use the Garmin ETREX VENTURE and is quite usefull, since it allows to
transfer data from/to the PC through a cable. It works on batteries and is
very small.
Another cheap device is the ETREX LEGEND.

Another one which I think could be the best GPS at the moment is the Garmin
GPSMAP 60CS.

Along with the GPS it is interesting to use a program like OziExplorer as an
interface for data transfer and map, waypoint and track management.
