I am researching to possibily get a GPS so i can go and explore the woods by myself when the time comes. I've read various reviews on this site about Garmin 205/305 and they seem to be very popular among riders. However i'd like to get something with color so it's more dummy proof and easy to read.
My main purpose for the device is to assist my poor navigation skills so that i can tell my position at all times and to easily navigate my way back to the parking lot without getting lost. Ease of use and sustained signal are two of my main concerns followed by cost. So with the balance of the three, what product would you recommend? I've heard people with Garmin products not being able to get signals and/or signals are very sporadic even without a whole lot of tree coverage. So what about Magellan products? Other manufacturers?
Any inputs/experiences with products are greatly appreciated!
