Digital camera reviews of Garmin GPS 60 Non-Mapping Personal Navigation Unit
Digital camera Review: 60, a replacement for our 60csx
Summary: 4 Stars
This 60 was purchased to replace the more expensive 60CSx that died, with switch problems. This unit, same design and shape, works well. The monochrome display is hard to read, even with the light on full. The 60 uses battery power even when connected to the computer. We use our GPS's for Geocaching (we have 4, Garmin and Magellan). The 60 lacks some things the 60CSx has, but is a lot less money. Overall rating, I would give it a 4 of 5.
