I already have a 76S - the smaller display on the 76CS (even if it was the
same resolution) is enough for me not to upgrade - I have trouble seeing the
76S when mounted on my dash, and couldn't imagine anything smaller. I stopped
using the Etrex Summit when I got my 76S, except for on my motorbike as I
only have a bike mount for an Etrex.
