I have had a 400t for several weeks now. Garmin just release the 2.4
firmware update and it fixes so many<br>
problems that it is an amazing unit.<br>
<br>
I am in Blythe, CA, right now after finishing a excellent off-road caching day
on the Bradshaw Trail. All<br>
I used was my 400t - no PDA loaded with Cachemate needed as you can load your
GPX pocket queries right on the<br>
Colorado and read the cache page directly from the unit. Then at the end
of the caching day, if you have been<br>
marking your caches as found, you just upload the geocache_visits.txt file from
the Colorado to <a href="http://geocaching.com/" target="_blank">geocaching.com</a><br>
and you have all your found caches listed, read to submit logs. See the
link below from the Calgary board<br>
to see how found caches works with this unit :<br>
<br>

target="_blank">http://forums.calgarycachers.net/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=2725&st=0&sk=t&sd=a&start=60</a><br>
<br>
In my opinion, it's definitely THE unit to buy ... just make sure that you
install the updates from Garmin.<br>
<br>
For me, the Colorado has made my PDA and Cachemate obsolete.<br>

I played with the Colorado a little in Vegas, but I ended up buying a <br>
GPSMap 60CSx a few weeks ago, I like it a lot.<br>
