5 out of 5 stars Too many complaints from people who don't own one!   May 11, 2008

It amazes me the comments made about this product in the gps forums and websites. I was very reluctant to purchase based on all of the complaints and whining. Now that I've had one for a week, I don't see what all of the complaining was about. It does everything I expected it to and more. All of the things I've read that others were complaining about can be done, but you have to actually read the manual. No it's not like the older previous models - that's what makes it new. Could it be improved? Of course. So could the Jaguar XJS, but you won't hear many people complain.


4 out of 5 stars Love it, but am on my third one   May 3, 2008

This replaced my 60csx. The detail on the screen is a big improvement. NIMH battery performance has improved with recent firmware upgrades. The back cover is extremely hard to get on and off. After a couple of weeks of daily use, the back battery seal tore. Garmin support via email (3 day response time) said I had to return it for warranty repair. Instead I took it back to REI and they exchanged it no problem. This happened again and am now on my third one. Now, I never fully close the back cover unless I am in a situation where it could be submersed in water. This has prevented the seal from tearing, and makes the back cover much easier to get on and off. Also you do not have to remove the carabiner to get the cover off with this method. TOPO and City Navigator work great! I recommend this unit but be careful with the back cover!

I've owned multiple GPS units over the years, including $10,000+ marine units. Generally had great experience with Garmin.

But the Garmin Colorado is a waste of money. Worldwide basemap only sees state highways and above. That's right, for $300+ you get a worthless navigation unit!

So you have to buy City Navigator for another $145. Defective disc won't load in any of 5 different PCs. Emailed customer support - no answer in a week. Called customer support, wait times 55 minutes, 50 minutes and 50 minutes! Sent disc back asking for replacement. No response.

Never again, Garmin. Time to sell my shares.






5 out of 5 stars Gorgeous Screen   March 28, 2008

This is an extremely cool GPS.

The screen is gorgeous. Big and sharp. The Topo 2008 maps look so cool with shading and 3-D.

The new control wheel really makes it easy to use. Far easier than any other Garmin unit.

It is well built, looks very cool and feels really good in your hand.

The recent firmware updates have solved most of the problems early buyers encountered when it first came out. I have no real complaints or problems that bother me.

I use it for hiking, biking, and driving. I put a 8GB SD card in and was able to load a lot of maps. I am really enjoying using it on my weekend explorations here in New Mexico.

I highly recommend it. Well worth the price.
