Garmin eTrex Vista GPS with built-in barometric altimeter and electronic compass! The eTrex Vista combines a basemap of North and South America, with a barometric altimeter and electronic compass.

Provides position accuracy to less than 3 meters when receiving WAAS corrections. The eTrex Vista also boasts an internal memory capacity of 24 MB, which allows it to accept downloaded mapping data from Garmin's MapSource CD-ROMs, including U.S. Regional Lakes with Fishing Hot Spots. A silver case gives this unit a high-tech look. New... this model includes marine aids to navigation in addition to the basemap. These navigational aids are pre-loaded so your GPS is ready to use right out of the box! Order Today! Garmin eTrex Vista GPS

 Affordable mapping GPS September 12, 2008
Seajay (Richmond, VA)
Garmin's first-generation eTrex Vista was my third handheld GPS, after a Magellan Explorist 200 and a Garmin Geko, and was by far my favorite of the three. Ability to upload topographic maps and waypoints by the hundreds, and a magnetic compass which can show direction even when you're not moving, make this a great geocaching tool. While I never purchased the available detailed road maps, the included base map shows towns and major highways, and was more than enough on cross-country drives to estimate times of arrival -- "Can we make it to Austin by evening, or should we look for a place to stay now?" Made my trip much happier.
I'd give the Vista five stars, but honestly it is a somewhat dated product. You'll need an adapter to connect it to a USB port, and it doesn't have the higher sensitivity of newer GPS units. But for the right price, this is a great option for a hiker, geocacher, or interstate driver.

I was very dissapointed when I recieved my Garmin GPS. I ordered a Garmin ETrek Vista which Amazon advertised for $89 which was an excellent bargin but when I recieved my gps, it was a generic which I could have bought for $69 at Home of Econcomy. Got the sorry sir from the company that shipped it but no bargining on the one I wanted or the one they sent me. They were good about sending me some prepaid UPS labels to sent it back to get my refund, which I had to travel 44 miles to the nearest UPS center but got things resloved. Not happy!!!
