Garmin GPSMAP 60CSx review
Garmin GPSMAP 60CSx has a Micro SD card slot, as well as an electronic altimeter, and an electronic compass. The auto-routing capability for Australian street mapping, street numbers, and points of interest is optional, available on CD rom or pre-loaded Micro SD card. The GPSMAP 60CSx comes standard with an internal memory map of Asia/Australia showing major and connecting roads, and some natural features. Marine charting is another option available on CD rom or memory card. The GPSMAP60CSx can be used successfully as an In-Car device. It is completely portable - move it from vehicle to vehicle - no installation - no in-vehicle CD roms. The Garmin MAP60CSx also has area measurement functions, so making it equally useful for farmers, land-owners, agricultural consultants, and aquaculturalists. The altimeter function makes the CSx really useful for determining land elevations, for planning water conservation and reticulation. With the flexibility of the Micro SD memory card (a slot is provided inside the battery compartment, so water-proofing is not compromised), you can have street mapping for different countries, and marine charting loaded on the same card. If you use the GPSMAP60CSx for in-vehicle navigation (with optional Mapsource mapping), the map page will show your position as a triangle, the road you are on, and other roads around you. Key in or pick a destination (number, street, suburb) from a list, and the GPSMAP60CSx will calculate the route for you, either quickest or shortest. The selected route shows as a wide bright line, and will now prompt you to move in the direction of the route with beeps at each turn. Everything on the map is to scale, just like a street directory.
