If thats the GPS that came out a couple years ago... it seems like a great 
idea at first thought, but if you read the battery life and other specs on 
it, it's actually a rather lame product.  It only has a battery life of about 
an hour, but I guess since you can only have 10 waypoints, thats not exactly 
too little, because your batteries will die before you can find that many 
caches :)

I would be interested in knowing if they have improved it at all.  It would be 
nice to have a GPS all the time that updates more often than once a minute or 
so, without chewing up your batteries.
