Hi,

Why only a monochromatic eTrex?

Why not a color eTrex like 22x and 32x?

regards,
Antonio

The eTrex SE is the replacement for the eTrex 10, which is an entry level budget device with monochrome display.

Do not discount how capable the eTrex SE really is, we have very much enjoyed using ours.

I've been using the eTrex SE for a week and I really like it. It has some bugs, but they will hopefully be resolved in future FW updates. I just miss the POI support a lot and it's a shame that the eTrex SE doesn't support it :( Accuracy in the narrow deep canyon between the rocks still 3 meters, great :) Battery life is amazing, after 100 hours of play one battery bar disappeared :) I also miss the original case from Garmin :(

I prefer the original case from Garmin, but Garmin doesn't make the original case for the etrex SE. Today I discovered the original case for the Garmin Dakota, the dimensions look good, I wrote to the seller and I am waiting for an answer. The second option is a bumper case but I also haven't found a version for etrex SE anywhere on the internet yet.

So I ordered this case.
Although the price of the case is a nice $12 but postage+tax+customs+fee another $40, but there is no other choice and I can be happy that the seller ships to the EU.
Thank you for the advice. ;)
