Excellent choice with the Garmin, i think its lording it over all the other GPSs. Actually a close reltive--the Garmin GPSMAP 60CSx--made it to ConsumerSearch's top selection for 2007. More of the GPS review, whether auto or handheld.

That's very unlikely, as I think my big requirement is the AA batteries. Having an internal battery means having to carry a charger.

Now we'll just have to see if my new bike GPS tempts you into getting one of those as well... (ship, GPS, ship!)

Fortunately, the 76CSx's bike mount is nothing like the 60CSx's. It's a 3 piece mount and very solid.

If the 76CSx's bike mount is anything like my 60CSx bike mount, don't trust it. Be sure to loop the lanyard around the handlebars so when the gps pops out of the mount it doesn't hit the ground. Garmin needs to redesign their AA battery contacts as well. When riding over rough ground on my road bike, the 60CSx turns itself off sometimes (which is also an issue with the Vista Cx as well). Garmin should take a careful look at how Nintendo designed their Wiimote's AA battery compartment.
