Description: (from garmin.com)
The GPSMAP 60Cx is a refreshing upgrade of the GPSMAP 60C, one of our most popular models for outdoor and marine use. This unit features a removable microSD card for detailed mapping memory and a waterproof, rugged housing. The microSD card slot is located inside the waterproof battery compartment. Users can load map data and transfer routes and waypoints through the unit’s fast USB connection. In addition, this unit features a new, highly sensitive GPS receiver that acquires satellites faster and lets users track their location in challenging conditions, such as heavy foliage or deep canyons.
Considered the mainstay among serious outdoor enthusiasts, the GPSMAP 60Cx and GPSMAP 60CSx offer a large color TFT display and turn-by-turn routing capability. Each unit comes with a blank 64 MB microSD card. Owners of these new x-series handhelds can also purchase new microSD cards that are pre-loaded with MapSource® Topo and inland lake maps, BlueChart® marine cartography, and City Navigator™ street maps. |

| Pros | Brilliant color screen, ability to import topo and road maps, removable memory. Useful off the bike for things like hiking and driving. | | Cons | Bulky form factor, no elevation plot screen. | | Verdict | The GPSMap 60Cx wasn't designed for mountain biking and it shows. Stick with the Edge 305 or if you can't live without the color screen or the maps, go for the Edge 705. | | Recommended for: People with too much money |
