Comparison chart for GARMIN handheld and wrist GPS

The Foretrex™ 101 introduces GPS to a new generation of users. Outdoor activities will become far more achievable with a GPS that leaves your hands free. Just strap on your wrist or shoulder lapel. $171.

It’s easy-to-use interface and basic GPS capabilities are perfect for outdoor enthusiasts who can carry a few spare batteries, rather than relying on charging the night before. This unit features Garmin’s intuitive operating logic, utilizing six dedicated buttons to simplify navigation. Mark where you left your vehicle, a spot in the bush, or other place of interest. The Foretrex 101can record its location, identify the waypoint, and navigate to it later using the GoTo function. Also, with the help of Garmin’s exclusive TracBack® technology, users can retrace their steps by following an electronic breadcrumb trail back to any point on the trail, or their original starting point.

Because the unit is waterproof, the Foretrex 101 is a natural companion on watersport adventures like kayaking, canoeing, boating and sailing. In fact, this device incorporates another feature found on the Foretrex 201: a sailboat-racing timer. Competitors can configure the countdown sequence prior to the start of the race and utilize their GPS location to be in the best possible tacking position when the race begins.
