Super device, but initial software problems

Garmin Handheld GPS Dakota 20 (Electronics)

Customer Review

Also I can recommend this navigation device very.
I go mainly geocaching and wanted a bit more comfort, as one finds in the eTrex- series, for example, an integrated map. The electronic compass is for geocachers genuine super- you do not have to be constantly moving to find the right direction.
The Dakota I preferred the Oregon series by reason of price.

Initially, there was the problem that stored waypoints disappeared suddenly when the power off and on again.
Somewhere in the forest which is obviously very unfavorable.
However, this problem disappeared after a software update via Internet.

Among the functions of the device I'm thrilled just by the intuitive operation and the size.
Also regarding the battery life keeps the Dakota, what was promised.

The criticism on the display readability I understand: When cycling a bit cumbersome, but for me not so severe.
I have set the device so that it beeps before junctions, so I do not ever have to look when I have to turn.
