garmin 60cs
This item is great very accurate after buying city navigator which was needed for detailed info. I love the bread crumb feature to enable backtrack and the electronic compass.

Nice case, bad plastic cover
I was more than a little disappointed with this product. The case fit nicely over my GPS60CSx, but the plastic had a lot of glare to it, which made the LCD even harder to see in low light. The plastic also had some imperfections, which made it even harder to see. The neoprene case and carabener (sp?) were nice, but the plastic just ruined the usefulness.
I just ordered the Invisable Shield for the 60CSx, and will probably cut the plastic out the case, and use the Invisible Shield protective cover. It's not worth the hassle to return. Almost a good product, but it's no good if you can't see the display!

Awesome
I purchased the GPSMap 60csx for a road trip from Dallas to Knoxville, as well as a 2 day hike in the Smoky Mountains. After doing some research, I also purchased Topo 2008, City Navigator, and the East National parks maps to go with it. My wife navigated while I drove and we found the software to be easy to use (after some practice) and helpful. Even though we didn't really use the GPS for hiking, it was fun to see how fast we were going, elevation gain, etc. We never had a problem with reception and were able to pick up good signals in hotels, camping, and in the car. Battery life was awesome and we went 3 days on the same set (with default backlight settings, keeping it turned off on long segments of highway, and at night). I had considered buying the newer Colorado series, but chose the gpsmap 60csx after reading a lot of users say that the newer versions needed some work. My only caveat is that without the additional maps, I am not sure that it would have been as useful.

Best case I could find
This case is awesome! The screen is easily visible through the protector, even with the backlight off. The unit slides in and out easily, and the removable carabiner makes this great for hiking with our without a backpack.

60CS Neoprene GPS Case
A perfect fit, but, a waste of money for me. Can't access connectors without removing GPS from case. The clear plastic sticks to the GPS screen and makes it hard to remove the GPS from the case. I do not use this case at all.
