Seems like a well thought out unit for a lot less than a Garmin. Will see how it goes.
this unit has had very good reviews since it appeared, and although I bought a garmin gps maybe 3 years ago, the Cora Dura would be a no brainer for me to replace it, just because of the solid long run time it provides and the solar recharging being fairly effective.
Price here in Canada is about $400, very much in line with the garnin and other equivalents.
