What this is seeming like is that the device I really want in future is the Etrex 30. It means I can use it for hiking, fell running, gravel/mountain biking as well as for mapping long audux rides.
Final question. If I was off on a multi-day tour and I didn't want to be rigid in my route (might see something shiny to go look at), I'm guessing the Etrex wouldn't be so good at handling that if I was only running from a gpx. If I suddenly decided to go a different way it couldn't just re-route me?
I've owned both hiking and cycling Garmins and the cycling ones seem to do everything that the hiking ones do but in a different form factor (maybe missing random stuff like hunting/fishing times).
Main difference is the interface (touch screen v buttons) and power (rechargeable v AA).
