'I WOULDN'T GO ANYWHERE WITHOUT IT'

Strengths:
The case is very rugged. Mine survived a 50m while in the bosuns chair. It only has a small scar at the bottom of the case.

Weaknesses:
A bit on the large side

Overall:
No complaints. Magellan have brought out firmware updates on a timely basis to fix small bugs.
Satellite acquisition is fast, screen is large and detailed (Mapsend) maps are accurate (at least over Europe - UK, Germany, Austria, Southern France, Pyrenees, Northern Spain).
