Well I will say the prices have seemed to have raised recently.. Then again I havet really been looking after I got the 3.. The etrex would work for you.. Just leave it in the window.. There are reradiating ant's out there also listed on the gps joe website.. This allows the use of an external antena that reradiates it in another location such as buildings or cabs of pickups with lare alum campers behind and above ;-) and I think they cost 99 bucks or it might be more cant remember.. -----Original Message----- From: Matthew Hanson [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, January 31, 2002 2:52 PM To: Libretto Subject: RE: [LIB] Win95B/98 Date: Thu, 31 Jan 2002 20:43:46 +0000 From: "Matthew Hanson" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: RE: [LIB] Win95B/98 >Date: Thu, 31 Jan 2002 14:53:48 -0500 (EST) >From: Michael Miller <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > >On Wed, 30 Jan 2002, Matthew Hanson wrote: > > > I was wondering what your experiences have been.

But I see that it doesn't support an external antenna, which I think I'd probably need in a big pickup truck with a aluminum sided camper behind and above the cab. Sure would seem great for cycling though. But I can't beleive the prices on EBay... almost up to the $100 point. GPSs must retain a pretty good value.
