I was very pleased.

Well, this sounds good. Not to distract from the OT but my Garmin etrex VistaCx screen cracked today for no apparrent reason. Mine is still in warranty. I'll call on Monday to see what will happen.

I will add that I've liked the unit quite well. The Vista Cx is a bit smaller than the 60CSx but has some similar features like the microSD card, color screen and auto routing, with the appropriate maps.
