The magellan unit is well made, with an ergonomically pleasant shape and also a rubberised surround which allows the unit to be gripped when the weather is inclement.
Used when driving or walking this unit is spot on. I have compared the results with large scale topo maps and seen that the receiver put me within feet of where I thought I was.
Plenty of shareware exists to allow waypoints to be moved back and forth between the desktop and the unit.
Minor gripes include the connection between the PC wire and the unit that has an awkward connection system, and the battery life. However the accuracy and the number of features cannot be beaten IMO.
