I like my older eTrex model too, but when I heard that these new units have the high-sensitivity receivers on them, I immediately started looking into that. I love going to Minnesota, and I was told that these newer units will help keep a signal even in the deepest tree coverings in MN. I'm sure willing to give it a try. There's nothing more frustrating than losing a signal when you're on a hunt. At any rate, I also just found out that Garmin is giving away a new nuvi 200 for automobiles this summer...and thought I would look into that for my trips to Minny. If all I have to do is take a picture of me with my etrex and send it in to win a new unit for my car, I'm game!
