With a proper map you can see the whole route at once, which can help you keep it in mind. With a GPS unit's minuscule screen all you can see is a wee bit, unless you are using it to navigate to the local corner store. I looked into a Garmin GPSMAP60 but the price of the software soon adds up to far more then the unit itself, a real have. So I'm staying away from GPS in droves. |
