Re: Before I Forget: Anyone Have A GPS?

It is alot of fun.. good exercise.. gets you outside..

There are 1000's and 1000's of geocaches all over the world.. hide one or go find one!

BTW- I was the one who coined the word "NaviCache".. now it's the second most used word to describe the sport of Geocaching.

Re: Before I Forget: Anyone Have A GPS?

They're alot of fun.. I used to have a really good GPS, need to get another one. If you get one for Geocaching, make sure you can load in topographical maps.. street maps won't do. You also need a GPS that isn't tethered to the car, a hand-held.

Best GPS system - especially GPS for driving?

What's the best GPS system out there, particularly to use while you're driving?

I have a Garmin nuvi 260w. It has a walking feature that you use when not driving. Good for large cities. The screen is wide and its very easy to use. There is a voice that lets you know where to turn.

Re: Before I Forget: Anyone Have A GPS?

I have a GPS and most times its more reliable than Rudolf. Make sure to put it on your Christmas lists. Mine is a chargeble one in the car and then I can un-plug it and walk around outside with it.

Re: Before I Forget: Anyone Have A GPS?

I did my research, both asking everyone who i know that knows about them & online, along with in-store packets that show all features... I found the Tom Tom to be the best IMO & i bought it, hooked it up to my pc & downloaded all kind of fun & helpful stuff, auto map update, lots & lots of free downloads online & on Tom Tom forum that are accessed thru the usb cord that comes with it, well worth the $250 i paid for it on sale... best feature to me was the lifetime FREE map & road updates... i love my new Tom Tom.

What kind, Santa? With all the places you go, your GPS must be good!

YW... I read that Tom Tom is the only one that offers 100% FREE lifetime map & road change updates... though i'm sure others will eventually follow suit, considering some charge well over $100 for the updates. That was my deciding factor.

Another cool thing about it is that the forum has lots of free downloads from other members... even some stuff that would cost money normally, people have loaded it to the forum & being hooked to the pc you can download it all or just what you want... i was lost there for hours when i first discovered the site.


Hope you find one that you like & can count on keith!
