"The industry's smallest and lightest handheld GPS receiver (for now!). The eTrex's sleek (4.4"H x 2" W x 1.2" D) waterproof housing will fit in your shirt pocket. It weighs only 5.3 ounces when its 2 AA batteries are installed. (Battery life is up to 22 hours.)By putting the operating buttons on the sides of the unit, Garmin has allowed for more room for the display screen (128 x 64 pixels, FSTN, 4 level gray scale).
The eTrex is a 12 channel parallel receiver, is differential ready, and has a built-in patch antenna. Simple menus and logical operations make it easy for you to mark up to 500 waypoints. Navigation is made simple using the compass page, or by viewing your path on the map page. Save 1 route with 50 waypoints. An automatic log lets you retrace your path in both directions.
Other features include:"
- electro-luminescent display
- permanent user data storage (no memory battery required)
- resettable trip odometer
- dedicated zoom in/out keys for map viewing
- an affordable low price!
