GPS

Looks like there is a no good automotive and hiking GPS unit out there. Reading the forums, it appears that Garmin 60CSx is solid unit, and I like it since it has these features (sorted based on importance):

1. High sensitive GPS receiver + SiRF III chipset.
2. Custom POIs (ability to add additional points of interest).
3. 10,000 point automatic track log; 20 saved tracks (500 points each).
4. Garmin said this unit supports 2GB micro SD but someone (Amazon) has upgraded to 4GB.
5. Up to 20 operating hours using 2xAA batteries.
6. Trip computer.
7. Water resistant to IEC 60529 IPX7 standards (can be submerged in one meter of water for 30 minutes).
8. Barometric read and digital compass.

But it has it's drawbacks (all of them are very important):

1. Need to buy separate maps, Garmin MapSource City Navigator for automotive and Topo for hiking purposes.
   
2. No turn-by-turn voice directions, only beeping.
3. Route recalculating issues for automotive purposes.

Looks like I have to get Nuvi x50, I am driving the freeways, more than hiking the trails.
