[team dirt]

Anybody have,seen or used one one of these. They look to be the cats a$s.

That would be a sweet setup.
Avy pack is next on my list so this one will have to wait. I'll wait for others to test this as well before I'd buy. Anything that I can use to let my wife know I'm on the right side of the snow would be good. I must not have a great insurance policy

Never used a Delorme so not sure how it compares to Garmin.
I'm definitely getting the Spot2 though.

I like the fact that you can send a one way text. I have the spot but you are limited to only the pre set messages. Also the maps for the delorme look awsome, especially the fact you can do satelite imagry. This is the first i have heard of delorme gps. I have always used garmin.

If it works good the price is not that bad..

I looked on gpscentral.ca and they have this for $549. Tempting...

I am looking at the DeLorme w/SPOT, or the 530 and adding a SPOT, but I have a set of motorola 2 ways but am not sure of the power.

Not sure what to do now.

I still like the Rino because of the position reporting when you get separated from friends.
