    Default HELP on HandHeld GPS


    Asked to pick out a hand held GPS for my birthday. Really can't make a decision due to lack of knowledge on GPS's.So how about some suggestions.
    Want to get the best and most dependable. Will use it for fishing so accuracy is most important. Prefer largest screen and clarity. Cost is not a issue.

    Although I've never seen anyone mention them hear, Delorme has a unit that I would buy if I had need of one. It has many bells and whistles, color and easy to view in sunlight. Go to Delorme.com and check it out. I've been a user of Delorme mapping products for years, no complaints.

    I've got an IFinder H20 and wouldn't trade it for anything. To me, it's easier to use then the garmins, and the screen is bigger. But it's the only unit I've used.

    I have worked with Trimble on several projects. They make fine stuff. Carry your banker with you when got to buy one.

    Looked on there web site. Impressive. Will one have to be a rocket scientist to use it. Did not see any screen sizes, what do you guess? Just how big will my banker have to be? There's a distributor about 100 miles from me.

    Thanks

    Did some research, the Delorme appears to be a good top of the line GPS.
    BP stocks them also. Will put it high on the list.

    Thanks
