I am a dot at the end of a line, normally surrounded by parallel lines. My buddy had his turn off after he put it back on his pack, antenna facing in instead of out. I have had my Legend cut in and out during the course of a trip. Don't forget that you have to purchase that $100 map software. Although you can store many maps, the Legend will go slow like a sick turtle crossing a maple syrup lake in winter. I have taken it skiing and would not have been able to use it if necessary. This, of course, means that you have to carry spares. I use lithium batteries and still get no more that 12 hours. Battery life is no more than 1 day of constant use. GPS features like average speed and route tracking GPS positioning is much easier than calculation with a map and compass. After a year of use, I really don't use it that much. I got the Legend because it had the map memory I wanted without all the bells and whistles I didn't need. This review is slanted a little the performance measured has been in Alaska which tends to be colder than normal use and with worse GPS satellite coverage.
