Mostly re: the XM (which I don't care about) and the map downloads (which I mentioned, but figured out myself...)

Anything else? Just curious what I'm in for!
From what I've read of them, just basically difficult to use (downloadable maps in particular). They also use a proprietary map format that no other gps company uses, which can further complicate matters. I think in terms of just wanting to shoot out coordinates, it will probably be fine.

I saw them on Woot also ... and then got an advert from Meijer's that had them on sale there for same price as Woot. I've decided that I'm going to save up for a Delorme PN-40 for my next one.

I'm not sure on how accurate you want to be with your mapping, but if you've got a buddy with another gps, I'd take him along also for confirmation of readings or you could compare w/ other previous gps maps.
