Ok guys, I have spent the last few days looking through archives on what handheld GPS units are good, which ones are not and so on, and I have done nothing but confuse the daylights out of myself. So here is my plan, I want to tell you guys what I want to do with it, how much I want to spend, and hopefully I will get some models that you feel fit my needs so here I go.
1. I want a unit that can store all of my favorite fishing holes and tell me how to get there the next time after I punch them in.
2. I want a unit that is water proof, not water resistant (I am clumsy.)
3. I have no idea if I need mapping capabilities, because I don't understand the difference of that and item #1 above.
4. I would like a unit that has the removable Flash Memory cards so I can put it into my friends' GPS unit.
5. I have no idea what I need for Pixels, obviously the more the better.
6. I need something somewhat easy to use because this is my first GPS unit.
7. I will be using this for tournaments so if there are other things I should look at let me know.
8. I have around $200 to spend give or take.
Thanks guys/gals
