[Az-Geocaching] To the Magellan Zealots...

[Brian Casteel]

That's just it.  I have yet to field test one, but the new X series has 
a new receiver system that is supposed to blow away what is already out 
there for Garmin at least.  The prices on these will drop soon, I'm 
sure, to something close to the price of the non-X 60 series, as the 
prices on those have dropped a solid $50 already.

Hey Scott,

I see your name has been changed in your e-mail to Cowboy Wind.  Would 
you like me to ship you some Bean-O?
