Magellan eXplorist 500/600 Review



This unit is a complete departure from any other GPS unit we've ever
seen. It's focused on the Geocache community, but has many other useful
features not 'commonly' found in other units.

The user interface took some getting used to, and I had to get the help
of a Dr. of Psychology (really) to help me understand it! It's more
like Windows Explorer than anything else.

You'll find a bright color screen, small size, USB, SD-card memory,
auto-routing, electronic sensors, and Geocache .gpx file-handling -a
nice outdoor utility.
