When the IQue came out, I seriously thought about it. But I decided not to
as I want a more rugged GPS that is waterproof. I'd think the IQue would be
fine in the car and nice weather for 1/1 caches, but I would not want it for
anything else.
While I have only had my 60CS for 2 days, I am very impressed with it and
highly recommend it. I like how it will do street routing, but it will not
replace my laptop for navigating to caches.
So I recommend the 60CS and a PDA. If you do not have a laptop, the 60CS
should do a fairly good job getting you to the caches.
The only problem with the 60CS has been compatability with software. (See
the message I sent yesterday for more details.)
And don't forget Brawny won the powerball!

IQue vs. 60CS
Which is better? The IQue alone or a 60CS and a seperate PDA? I'm in the
process of selling a couple things I don't need (not geocaching related
stuff) and saving some money and thinking about upgrading from my Etrex
Vista. I'd like to here the thoughts of others before doing anything since
both are not cheap investments.
