The eTrex Vista combines the popular features of the eTrex Summit with a full basemap of the Americas, the Atlantic or the Pacific, a barometric altimeter, electronic compass and 24 megabytes (MB) of internal memory for extra data storage. Pinpoint Your Location - and Direction: The Vista's barometric altimeter pinpoints your precise altitude, and its built-in electronic compass provides bearing information even while you're standing still. The Vista can also receive position corrections from the Wide Area Augmentation System (WAAS), which makes Vista's already-accurate positioning data even more reliable. In fact, when you turn on WAAS, you can increase the accuracy of Vista's position reporting to within three meters.

Add More Detail

The Vista's basemap contains lakes, rivers, cities, interstates, national and state highways, railroads and coastlines. Vista also comes preloaded with marine navigation aids. And, with Vista's extra 24 MB of memory, you can add even more map detail with data from Garmin's entire line of MapSource mapping products.

eTrex Vista: Puts the great outdoors in the palm of your hand.

What does refurbishedThis is the answer direct from Garmin:
These are systems that have been returned to Garmin from either an end user or dealer that may or may not have been used. Many of the units Garmin gets back from their larger retailers are actually found to be working fine, but end users have returned them for any number of reasons. Whereas some units do come back with real failures. Garmin therefore takes all these units that come back, tests them out and, if necessary, does repairs to bring them back to "like new" status. Garmin also ensures they have the latest software update. These units are therefore as good as new, but since they have been in the field, cannot be sold as new. Garmin then offers them to their dealers at a discounted price and offers a full one year warranty, just as they do on new systems. These systems are not new, but are as good as new. mean?
