    2.0 out of 5 stars Not worth the money., 15 Jun 2009
    By D. Davies (Sunderland) - See all my reviews
    (REAL NAME)   
    After using my trusty old Garmin Venture unit for over ten years, mainly for geocaching, I thought I'd upgrade to the all singing, all dancing, Oregon 300. Used it over the weekend for a few caches and didn't like it one bit. Although the unit's accuracy and speed of satellite acquisition is excellent and far superior to the Venture's, I found the touch screen unresponsive and a little on the delicate side. It was left smudged when used with clean fingers, can't imagine what'd it be like after you've been digging around in the dirt searching for a cache. The main reason I bought this was to go paperless caching but I felt the Oregon's geocaching feature didn't live up to expectations, particularly the map screen when navigating to a cache. The last, and the reason for it's return to Amazon, was it's pathetic battery life. Advertised as 16 hours but I went through three sets of batteries, both rechargeable and normal AA's, in a matter of hours. The charge indicator on the unit lost a bar literally seconds after changing the batteries and within a hour or so it was telling me to replace them again.

    Maybe I'd received a faulty model and the battery life isn't an issue with most units but it's other shortcomings mean I won't be asking for a replacement.

    4.0 out of 5 stars Garmin Oregon 300, 26 April 2009
    By Mr. J. M. Jones (Anglesey, North Wales) - See all my reviews
    (REAL NAME)   
    Overall a good GPS although as mentioned previously, it comes with a very basic basemap and only really gets good if you have the Garmin Mapsource maps or some of the free ones out there compiled by GPS users.

    What you get in the box is the GPS, a USB cable, carabiner clip and a manual on CD. No software, so you will have to register and download the updater software from the Garmin website. Had to buy the case and screen protector separately - if you are going to spend this much on a GPS, then protect it with the screen protector as grit will scratch the touch screen.

    Software updates are improving the functionality every time, just put on the latest beta release which is excellent.

    3.0 out of 5 stars Not so good for sailing, 24 Aug 2009
    By Mr. William Sunnucks (England) - See all my reviews
    (REAL NAME)   
    We bought a Garmin Oregon for the Archipelago Raid, an endurance sailing event run in the Baltic in small catamarans. Although the software is as good as ever, we had trouble seeing the screen in sunlight and found it wasn't waterproof as claimed. We couldn't put it in a waterproof bag as we have done before because the touch screen is difficult to operate. These are serious problems and I would advise against buying one for sailing. We reverted to using the Garmin 76CX. Other teams had success with the Garmin Colerado.
