Using this thing is like using a puzzle. The user interface is horrible. Sure it tracks where you are fine within 150ft and gives you nifty elevation plots (with less than accurate numbers despite setting it up each time from a known elevation)but it's user interface to plan a trip and insert waypoints and manage a trip are horrible. Using the software is a cumbersome confusion of function keys that have no explanationa nd the help function for the software might as well be in another language. If you want to set up a new waypoint out on the trail away from your computer it'll take a good 10 minutes just to find the location if you're more than a few miles away. maybe my hard times are from thsi being my first GPS device but overall I have more trouble setting it up to map a route than I get joy from using it. If it had the option to run a dumbed down or more basic operation interface through the software that would eb great. I'm sure the software that comes with it now is grewat for those already familiar with GPS devices for the most part but for me the software is the enigma to setup and use fully. The device takes a long time to draw maps and eats a set of energizer NiMH rechargable batteries in 6hrs if I'm checking the thing a couple times an hour for a couple minutes.

The older 60csx allowed you to view multiple saved trails at a time. This does not. The 60csx allowed you to modify the color and thickness of your track lines. This does not
So if you are going to a place that you have explored differently, with the 60csx you could see all of your prior tracks like a trail map. With the Colorado, you can only see one prior saved track. Its like looking at a map and only being able to see one road and no alternatives if you want to go a different way.
Also, while the color and thickness doesn't sound like much of an issue, the current tracks shows as a thin black line, which is similar to all of the other thin black lines on the map. The prior track is a huge thick line, much thicker than it needs to be. With the 60csx, you could adjust both.
Finally, there is no cover available to protect this product. There is a hard case, but most people want a cover that allows you to see the map whhile using the unit in less than perfect conditions. The 60csx had sone.
Accuracy is good, however if this product was not $500.00 and these items did not exist in prior versions, I would not care nearly as much.

I purchased this item as gift for my husband and he was so dissapointed in the performance of the software that we sent it back after 1 week. It is not possible to map trails in advance or get estimation of the distance to be traveled. The unit maps only as the crow flies, which can be done with a paper map, which by the way never freezes up and stops working.
However on a positive note, the construction of the unit seemed pretty durable, of coarse with it freezing up we didn't much bother having it out where it could get dropped. The GPS location was accurate and fairly quick when not frozen up. even though the altimeter was difficult to calibrate and inaccurate initially it did work eventually.
the manual was less than helpful. Please note that you must get the city navigator SD card if you want to map a route on the road. The topo map shows streets but it will only map a route without the SD card as the crow flies.
If you do not have lots patience for randomly thumbing through the on screen menu's to try and operate the unit coupled with a innate ability to be computer savy, then save your money.

I am amazed at the new Garmin Colorado 400T. It is nice, feels good and does not look cheap. I use regular batteries and it has a long enough life for one day being full on, and display at maximum brightness. Is is not 100% accurate as when I was walking in New York city my path (trail) was not marked by a straight line, but instead with curvy lines that followed the streets I walked on. It did not lose reception anywhere, even when in building 'canyons'. Another interesting part is that when on the train to New York it kept reception at all times unless I was in tunnel before the city. Lastly when I was flying from Florida to New Jersey I figured I would try device to see what it found. It picked my location while I was sitting in an aisle seat, kept track of flight, and showed plane airspeed. I am very happy with this unit and now take it everywhere. It is interesting to know where you are all of the time!
