Anyone use this? Been looking at one and thinking about getting it. To map mountain bike routes and for hikng the Adirondacks area.

Seems to get great reviews for those that can screw up electronics ... :o ..... anyways, has this been a good unit for those who have used it?

It works well-we actually used it to map out 32 mountainbike trail systems earlier this year (for an upcoming book). the handlebar mount is ok...doesn't fit oversized bars. GPS is pretty accurate - the topo maps are great, and its really easy to use. I haven't used many GPS's, so I can't really compare...but i've got no complaints on this one. Its a good deal with all the software that comes with it.
I get about 8-9hrs of use per set of rechargabl;es
