With the eTrex Legend, Garmin has loaded a full basemap
of North and South America into one small unit. The Legend is
also designed to provide precise GPS positioning using
correction data obtained from the Wide Area Augmentation System
(WAAS).
This product will provide position accuracy to less than three
meters when receiving WAAS corrections.The basemap contains
lakes, rivers, cities, interstates, national and state highways,
railroads and coastlines. The eTrex Legend is also equipped with
additional memory totaling eight megabytes. The added memory
allows the eTrex Legend to accept downloaded map data from
Garmin's entire line of
MapSource®
CD-ROMs, including Fishing Hot Spots®. The eTrex Legend comes in
a brightly-colored translucent blue case that really makes the
unit stand out. New to the product design, Garmin will include
marine aids to navigation in addition to the basemap. These
navigational aids will be pre-loaded into each unit from the
factory. |
