Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Magellan Triton 2000 Waterproof Hiking GPS

Customer Review: Misunderstood or Adopted too Early
Summary: 5 Stars

I understand that there were a lot of problems with earlier firmware/software across this entire product line. All I can say is: Thanks! I am more pleased with the Triton 2000 than about any other electronics I have ever purchased, and I think the bad press led to the price drop. I use this baby every weekend when I go hiking in the (very desolate) mountains and deserts here in NM. Battery life is excellent, touch screen is bright and can be used with gloves, and the ability to automatically geotag the pictures I take of every petroglyph, mineral outcrop, ancient stone building, artifact, and panoramic view I have the benefit of stumbling across down here is almost beyond description. The NatGeo 7.5 minute topos are great, and there is good unlicensed software out there also. I definitely need the dustproof aspect, and being able to wash it in the sink is another bonus.
