eTrex 30x GPS BirdsEye Select

Ability to give total accent

Difficult to start from nil mileage at start of each walk

almost the same as my old etrex 30 but with the added bonus of extra memory. I use it for geocaching, navigation aide after map and compass and strava on the bike and foot.

shorter battery life, more expensive

I found the instructions were not easy to follow. It would help to have a an overview section at the beginning so the subsequent instructions would be more meaningful

1> lightness 2> belt clip 3> many features but, for example, for a walker there are too many. I will try to re-organise page order to group the relevant ones but have not yet had time to test it out.

1>web site & manual denote SD card whereas MSD card is required-spent money unneccessarily on SD card before realising REAL requirement. 2> joystick is difficult to operate on the move. In particular the "OK" button tends to move when depressed...
