I'm using Etrex 30 for my mapping expeditions. However I cant compare to any handhelds as this is the first I had. So far so good with digital compass and barometer. Screen is highly visible even in bright sunlight. Battery (using NiMH AA) lasts roughly 20 hours of continuous use. Tracing can be selected for time (upto 1-sec) point trace or distance (upto .01km) has microSD slot. USB 1.0 interface (mini-usb) Waterproof until 1 meter -- Ervin M. *Schadow1 Expeditions* - A Filipino must not be a stranger to his own motherland. http://www.s1expeditions.com On Tue, Jun 11, 2013 at 2:56 PM, maning sambale emmanuel.samb...@gmail.comwrote: Dear all, Any experience using etrex 30 [0] or gpsmap 62sc [1]?
