 Dead after 18 months June 7, 2010

This is my second Garmin GPS. The first one, an Etrex Legend, starting giving me problems just out of the warranty period; the joystick stopped working. This unit was gently used, never dropped, never got wet or abused in any way. I contacted Garmin about repairs and found it was hard to justify the cost of repairing it vs just buying a new one. I ended up selling it on Craigslist as a non-functioning unit.
In December, 2008, I purchased a Garmin Oregon 200. Just this month, the unit failed; the screen showed nothing but a bunch of horizontal lines and then would not do anything else. I tried several different batteries, but still nothing worked. This unit was also used gently and maybe 10 times total. Again, I contacted Garmin about repairs. I was informed that they have a flat fee of $99. I then e-mailed them, and stated my problems with their products, hoping they might help out with the repairs, but I never even received a response.
So, I now have another expensive Garmin paperweight. I'm not sure what I'll do with this one, but I can honestly say that I'll never buy another Garmin product. I just don't trust the brand.

I have been happy with this GPS, especially after that Bushnell. I do wish this one had a larger screen.
Oregon 200- Very good choice February 5, 2010

If we like to do Nature sports like orientation or geocaching, Garmin oregon is a very good choice. His portability, and his batery save program made this device a first choice. In city or holidays, Garmin city navigator maps are a very good and helpful tool. Nice style, nice GPS accuracy.
Excellent for Geocaching August 14, 2009

This is my third Garmin and the best I've had! The touch screen is very user-friendly and easy to input coordinates. The GPS sensitivity is very consistent and precise! I have geocaching friends who prefer my Oregon to their Colorados! If you can step up to the Oregon, it's the way to go!
 Hard to read, inconsistent July 26, 2009

Watch Video Here: http://www.amazon.com/review/R1RX40ZDRRG9RT + Touchscreen
+ Durability, water resistance
- Hard to read - glare, low contrast
- Inconsistent speed and alitude readings
- Only works with ENELOOP batteries (not 2 other types of NiMH batteries that I tried.)
- No routing (unless you buy another map)
- No 3d view (unless you buy another map)
- No elevation history page (contrary to some 'screenshots' you may see)
- Ancient maps (very few roads)
