The eTrex Venture offers a worldwide database of cities and increased internal memory. It is also one of the eTrex units that are designed to provide precise GPS positioning using correction data obtained from the Wide Area Augmentation System (WAAS). This product will provide position accuracy to less than three meters when receiving WAAS corrections.
The memory capacity of
one megabyte allows the eTrex Venture to accept downloaded information from Garmin's MapSource® Points of Interest CD-ROM. The CD enables users to download locations such as restaurants, hotels, shopping, and entertainment. Once the information is loaded into the unit, you can make a selection and telephone and address information for a particular point of interest will appear on the screen. The CD also includes marine data such as lights, buoys, wrecks and obstructions. The eTrex Venture comes housed in a stylish, translucent green case.

Pros
The trip computer has all the info you will ever need. great to be able to see your rides in on a computer map or the display. it comes with a color display, software and case all for a fair price
Cons
It does not take memory cards so at times you have to remove data to add data for long trips
Review
Even without the mapping and gps feature it is still the best bike computer you can get. I wont ride without it
