Heeeeeelp
OK I've used GPS the odd time but never owned one. I've thought of getting one for a while to augment my compass (as magnetic compasses never get flat batteries). I've looked at the outdoor shops and online and in catalogues and I'm a bit confused. I don't want to be spending much more than £150 but the amout of units available is mind boggling, so what should I be looking for feature wise? The descriptions are often baffling and confusing. I tried to talk to one of the stallholders at the NEC outdoor show but he launched into his 'spiel' and for the 5 mins I was listening, he might well have been speaking russian. He sneered down his nose at me whilst taking great joy in bombarding me with 'technobabble' So I slowly sloped off and went to sit in the 'stupid corner' where I obviously belonged :?:
