I was bothered by it in the past, but I've come to realise it doesn't really matter. I carry a pack on an ultra, so an Etrex in a pocket is there if I really want it. AA batteries mean you can just swap them out and carry on if you are after recording. Etrex 30 + open maps (free) is about half the price and will help with navigation if you need it at all.

Got something to say?
