[Az-Geocaching] GPS Sick??

[Roping The Wind]

compare for yourself:

http://www.garmin.com/products/gpsmap60cs/
http://www.magellangps.com/en/products/product.asp?PRODID=1073

.. and you payed how much for that thing???? If that is the best Magellan 
has to offer so far... they have a long ways to go to even come close to 
Garmin. I know a cacher who is/was very much a Magellan fan that told me he 
was waiting for the 600 to come out.. but then had second thoughts when he 
found out that this latest and greatest from Magellan couldnt come close to 
comparing to the 60C/CS. He also realized he was getting alot more for his 
money with the Garmin and he also has been on many geocache trips with me 
and was amazed at how often my GPS would read 2 or 3 feet or less at a cache 
site.

I noticed this in their selling points on the Magellan website:
>>No service fees
>>Your eXplorist 600 is ready to go with no service fees and no activation 
>>fees, so go ahead, use it >>all the time.

Really? Do you pay service fees with other Magellan models? :)
