62s ideal for your own maps
I have used a GPS system out on the trail for many years, but wanted a unit to use with my own maps, and with a good battery life.
This is a sturdy unit, and the buttons are also large and positive which allows easy use with gloves.
The screen is clear in sunlight and the maps are easy to read. Also waterproof. It connects with USB to a computer, lead included.
The maps supplied are the UK OS full set at 1:50000 The equivalent of the old 1" series and the ideal for national coverage.
The micro SD card that includes them needs to be inserted in the holder underneath the battery. After that they are simply there to be used.
I downloaded the free vector map for Europe and this installed without any problems.
I have used the shareware program mapctomapc to calibrate my own jpeg map images, create a kmz file, and then upload them to this unit without any problem. The same kmz maps display on google earth so are easy to check.

Good with Ordnance Survey Maps
I don't know a huge amount about GPS systems. I did have an old (early model) Garmin that now seems like it came out of the Ark. It was also useless under trees etc!

My principal reason for buying was the good reviews and the fact that I can have the whole of the UK OS maps with me when I travel. This means that wherever I am, I can try out footpaths as I come across them. The 62S seems well built and rugged and personally I prefer the rubber buttons to operate it than the touchscreen on some other models. On unpacking it the quick start guide isn't the most useful and you need to find the full manual either online on Garmin's website or on the device itself when connected to your computer. Once you've worked out how to put the micro SD card with the OS maps into the back (under the batteries a bit like putting a SIM card in a phone) it is fairly straightforward.

If you then download 'BaseCamp' from Garmin's website you can then access the OS maps on your...
