Question Which one ???

Considering a handheld GPS to use when I go out on my Yak I'm leaning toward either the
LOWRANCE iFINDER GO2, GARMIN GPS 72, or Garmin GPS 76
Any body have any experience/ opinions with/on any of these
Thanks for the help

I have a Magellen color and it's been a fine unit for the 4 years I've had it. Obviously less features than the new stuff but it works great. However, for MY uses, I would go with something that will allow me load/display separate databases. I cheat, I just put my laptop on it's stand in the truck and use Delorme now...
