I hadn't heard of that one before. Do you have any idea how long it operates as a GPS on battery? The GPS I have now is a multifunction device - it goes for hours without the GPS on, but turn the GPS on and it dies quickly. It is going to be used in the car with power, the one I'm looking to buy is for use on a bike and foot - there's a lot of paths connecting up this area I want to go and map. It says "up to 380 hours" on the website, but I'm thinking that's with all the extras turned off. Most of my foot/bike mapping trips are only a couple of hours long, but it would be good if it can do a day or so for the odd longer hiking trip.
