No affiliation.


Like Hikermor, I started out with the 101. Got the 401 a couple years ago because it is a bit smaller.

Love the price point, battery life and simple interface on all three models. I wonder if Garmin will do another model at some point, been awhile.

One disappointment: I can't get my 401 to upload to my online Garmin Connect account, like it is supposed to.
