Advantages: Tough, compact, waterproof, accurate, cheaper than bike specific gps Disadvantages: Expensive maps, Poor bike handlebar mount, slow data transfer
This is a tough, well designed and compact handheld gps device. Personally I use this for mountain biking, with the GB Topographic map, and find that it accomplishes what I need it to do very well and is extremely accurate. It has a microSD slot which is great, I have a 2gb card and you can easily fit the whole of the GB topo map onto it.

It is waterproof so ideal for outdoor use, this is especially handy on the bike. It doesn't float but I don't intend on riding through anything that deep!!

This is a tough, well designed and compact handheld gps device. Personally I use this for mountain biking, with the GB Topographic map, and find that it accomplishes what I need it to do very well and is extremely accurate. It has a microSD slot which is great, I have a 2gb card and you can easily fit the whole of the GB topo map onto it. Ok so the road routing may not be great but I did not even consider using it in the car when I ordered it. However it does a perfectly acceptable job of navigating for me, although It does lack features of a dedicated sat nav. It is waterproof so ideal for outdoor use, this is especially handy on the bike. It doesn't float but I don't intend on riding through anything that deep!! It is bluechart compatible so thats another use for it if you purchase the marine maps, which I have and the detail is great. The games are fun the first time but you soon get bored and you do look a bit weird running round a field chasing imaginary geckos! The included mapsource software is nothing special but it does the job and include a few nifty features. Such as being able to set you PC clock from the gps sattelites.
Now for the not so good. The handlebar mount for the bike is not really up to standard and does not hold the unit very securely, which is something you want if you've just spent £140 on a gps. The worst thing is this chunk of plastic costs £15! It does the job but I'd prefer something more secure. Another downside is the horrendously expensive maps the GB topo cost me about £100 (RRP £149!!!) and the bluechart was £120 which in my opinion is just too much. Unfortunately it takes forever to compy maps from the PC to the unit, it took me around 6 hours to get the full GB topo on! With so many features the device has a steep learning curve so reading instructions is a must. Once you've cracked it's great!
Great unit but sub par accessories and crazily priced maps let it down.

Quick review of Garmin eTrex Legend HCx
Warning: to buy any form of maps for this device expect to pay a lot of money (£100+).
Note: Intended to use my device for navigation on road bicycle (therefore wanted continual display of speed etc.) Unfortunately in overcast conditions the screen is almost unreadable without activating the backlight (not too easy if you are blasting along at 30mph). No problem if you're walking, say, or don't care about current speed etc. Might be worth considering the non-colour version if you are though (better screen contrast) ...

Deep foliage, nor canyons phase the rugged eTrex Legend HCx. Its high-sensitivity receiver holds a GPS signal in the toughest environments. Similar to the Legend Cx, this handheld navigator also has a bright color screen, microSD card slot and automatic routing for wherever adventure takes you. With its high-sensitivity, WAAS-enabled GPS receiver, eTrex Legend HCx locates your position quickly and precisely and maintains its GPS location even in heavy cover and deep canyons. The advantage is clear - whether you're in deep woods or just near tall buildings and trees, you can count on Legend HCx to help you find your way when you need it the most. Adding maps is easier than ever with Legend HCx's microSD card slot. Conveniently plug in optional preloaded microSD cards with MapSource data for your land and sea excursions. Just insert a MapSource card with detailed street maps, and Legend HCx provides turn-by-turn directions to your destination. The card slot is located inside the waterproof battery compartment, so you don't have to worry about getting it wet. Like the rest of the eTrex series, Legend HCx is lightweight and compact - the perfect size for all your travels.
