  Cheep GPS thats workable
Review created: 06/05/06

The Garmin Geko 201 is an entry level GPS with a few extras that rank it above the Garmin Geko 101 but below the Garmin etrex. The 201 is accurate and rugged enough and yet cheep enough for someone just starting out with GPS sports like Geocaching.

The controls are simple enough to use one handed if need be and the manual is simple to read.

The bright color and rugged water proof design means that the 201 will stand up to most light to medium abuse it might encounter while in normal operation.

The main difference I see between the 101 and the 201 is the ability to link to a computer, instead of taking a number of minutes manually entering waypoints you can simply upload them within 30 seconds.

If your not sure if you want to get into sports like geocaching then buy the 101 or 201 till you get a feel for the sport. If you like geocaching you can easily use the 201 for all your geocaching needs. The 201 (and 101) lack some of the advanced features like road maps that you can find on the etrex models but with geocaching you're not generally going to be using maps.

On the whole the 201 is an nice easy beginners entry level GPS for the whole family to use.

I suggests to buy it at the united states - in Europe it is expensive.
Excellent device, small and comfortable, very accurate, possibility for serial output ( IPAQ, COMPUTER ), operates with 2 battery size AAA, water resistance, light included for dark.
Few Cons: when you put it inside your pocket it turns on and then the battery is dead, no ability to charge the batteries but it is possible to connect to external source. Doesn't support EGNOS only WAAS.

Hope it will help anybody.

For the price this small lightweight GPS is great, I have dropped it, I have used it in the pouring rain and it still works with no problems. I highly recommend for hikers, boaters and any one with the need to know where they have been and where they are going!!

I bought 2 of these (exact model) for my daughters to go geo-caching with. They work really well and are easy to use. They LOVE the neon green color! You can't go wrong for the money- terrific item, highly recommended for fun.

Product shows the path I took to get to my destination and how far I am away from where I started out. Will be great for a hunter to find thier way to and from their hunting spot. It has a screen that shows path traveled.

  GARMIN GEKO 201
Review created: 10/17/09

Geko 201 is great value. It is a budget, non-mapping gps (i.e. no frills). As such, it does not have a high quality sensor. What it does have is the ability leave a breadcrumb trail so if you get lost, you can reverse it to find your way back. It does not have the ability to upload or display maps. However, I get around this by adding waypoints and then editing the waypoints for GPS coordinates I already know (from trail guides, etc.) and presto- trail map. Or at least trail waypoints. The unit is waterproof, small, lightweight, and for $36 on eBay (including shipping) I feel it is a bargain. Would a maping GPS be nice? Yes, but this is a great back-up.

  Getting the Geko
Review created: 08/28/09

bgtimg ( 5 )

This piece is smaller than I was expecting. Despite that, it seems to be a great little piece from hiking, running, or anything like that. It doesn't have anything special with it (like maps or directions). Once it's activated, it will keep track of where you are and shows you how to get back to your starting point. It does display time,distance, and speed
