Garmin Rino 130

[beacher]

Hello,

Has anyone tried a Rino 130?  Are they any good for geocaching?  I am a bit concerned about the non-color screen.  But I figure that I can connect it to my Palm Zire with a color screen in the TV for turn by turn Auto-Route Navigation, and then just use the unit by itself in the field for finding caches.

Thanks

Hello Beacher,
 
I guess no one here has used that particular model.  I have the eTrex line of Garmin and also have the Garmin Street Pilot for the car.  The eTrex line is great for Geocaching and the Street Pilot is strickly for street naviagation.  Sorry I can't help you with anymore than that.
 
However, I do encourage you to sign up for a free membership at www.geocaching.com and post in the forums there.  They're fanatics about GPS units there and I'm sure you'll be inundated with responses.  Posting there with your question is like posting here with a Tow Vehicle question, eveyone is an expert.
 
Good luck and email me if I can be of anymore help.
