An 'old yellow' what? Not the eTrex personal??!! *gasp* Is that possible!

Seriously though, both NeoDorset and Malak 'suffer' with the eTrex yellow GPSr, 
and in my experience they both do just fine in the field! Perhaps it's not the 
auto-routing and colour screens, nor the vast memory capacity or fine chip-set, 
that determines how easy you find the cache.... (though I lust after 
auto-routing!)

  Maybe I should be a good son and procure a Garmin GPSMap 60Cx and pass on my 
GPS Map 60C to her.............

  But then my brother "Ducky" would want the 60Cas he still has his old "Yellow"

  Choices, choices...

    As I said, it never seems to last too long, and resolves itself without any 
warning. Usually it gives me a problem in one axis only when it manifests 
itself, then goes away.... Go figure.

      It is the thumb click stick that is giving me a headache, what do you do 
to make it work?

        I've had similar trouble with my Legend, balky controls - especially 
the thumb click stick. But fortunately they never have lasted long or been too 
onerous. I'm hanging onto it until the 60csx has established itself, or maybe 
something dual compatible with the European system too is available. Cheers,

          My e-trex legend and I are not getting along.   1) turn it on        
2) whack it on something hard to get the buttons working 

          We are now good to go and if I remember correctly, it will work till 
I turn if off, then we repeat steps 1 & 2.

          Needless to say, I will not go out in the bush with just this unit 
and do not wish to buy another at the present time.  Maybe Binrat will get 
tired of his 60C and want to upgrade in the near future.

          Does anybody else have this problem?   and if so how do you fix it?
