Desription ......... For GPS navigation on land or sea on a budget, Garmin introduces the GPSMAP® 60, a powerful device that boasts many of the performance features of the 60Cx and 60CSx in a more affordable package. The main difference between the three models is that the GPSMAP® 60 features a large, sunlight-readable grayscale screen, instead of a color one. Yet the GPSMAP® 60 is equally effective at GPS-based navigation, with features like: WAAS-enabled navigation, a built-in basemap with automatic routing capabilities, and a 28-hour battery life that make it easy to get your bearings on sea or land, anywhere on the planet. With the 60’s 24 MB of internal memory, adding optional Garmin MapSource mapping software allows you to navigate virtually anywhere.

Best Outdoor Global Positioning System Receiver : Hi! I am looking for a new Handheld GPS receiver. I used to have an outdoor GPS receiver before but it seems like it doesn’t work the way it is supposed to. Too bad because I think that one which I purchased before is not as durable as I thought it would be. I want to buy a new one which will give me better and reliable information. Although I want to keep it as close to my budget as possible, I still want to be able to find the best outdoor Global Positioning System receiver.

All GPS sale sites that I have been to only sell outdated GPS device at the discounted price unfortunately. I understand that this request me be a long shot but if anyone is willing to sell GPS at good sale price I would appreciate.
