Comments about Garmin GPSMAP 62s GPS Bundle:
After losing my 60csx, I thought that this would be a logical, and easy upgrade. The controls are actually a lot different than the 60csx, and it took quite awhile to get used to. I loved the calibration sequence that required a roll,end over end, and a sweep. Accuracy is phenomenal! Also, the supplied gear in the bundle package is not worth the extra cost. I ordered a different "rhino" cover, after I found the supplied clip bulky and pretty much useless. The 24k and satellite CD's were also VERY disappointing, and nothing close to what I had expected. I would seriously recommend buying the 62s only, and adding any other accessories from different vendors. I'm finally getting better at pulling up the info that I need, and I've been very pleased with this GPSr so far. Skip the bundle frills, and buy the better add-ons, and you'll happily save some bucks! ~J

Comments about Garmin GPSMAP 62s GPS Bundle:
Has quite a few features, perhaps too many. Recommendation: learn the difference between tracks and routes. Battery life can go fast if you forget it on, or change the default sleep settings. I plan on getting rechargeable batteries and a portable solar charger.
