A misunderstood product

I'll be honest, this is the VERY FIRST gps I ever bought. So far, my only complaint is the program that came with it. It seems to freeze my computer once in a while, but the Triton 300 has been excellent so far. Used this all over NH and CT, logged in about 250 hours so far on this GPS, without any problems. Standard battery life runs me about 8 or 9 hours, but when operated with Energizer Ultimate Lithium batteries (silver batteries), I get more than 14 hours with. It seems the other reviews here just expect to turn the equipment on and go. The controls on this require some study, but once you know where everything is, I thumb right to exactly where I want to be, and the Geocaching mode works excellent. Perhaps the other reviews have used MUCH MORE EXPENSIVE equipment, so this doesn't fall into that catergory. I'm very happy with this as a first time user. The color screen, ease of tracking my footsteps and creating trails is wonderful. I always have signal on my 3 day outtings and really like the feature that shows my total accent/decent in altitude chart. If you're a first time buyer, who doesn't mind getting to know his equipment prior to heading out into the woods, don't hesitate picking this device up. Keep it with you wherever you go for a week or two to really understand how it works like I did.
