In Iraq
Strengths: Will work any where in the world with 3 AA Batteries as a power source
Weakness: Is a little slow during satalite sync
I bought one of these for my son to take with him to Iraq. (He is back now) Several other soldiers in his unit have the same unit also. He said it was one of the most useful items he brought with him from home. You do have to load the map of Iraq on to the Rino but I asked the people at Garmin and they said that it was ok for the whole unit to share one cd and load all the Rino's from that one CD...

Great little GPS
Strengths: B&W Screen is easy to see in sunlight. Controls and usage easy to navigate and understand. AA Batteries available anywhere - does not need a charger. Rugged build - very durable and watertight too.
Weakness: Serial Interface (requires a USB adapter). Bolt for clip is not very strong. Radio quality is not the best.
We use these for outdoor games and geocaching and they are very reliable units. They can also be used to keep track of dogs (clipped to the collar) or even kids (in backpack) using the polling feature.
We are very pleased with this purchase and we will buy from Garmin again in the future as they update the Rhino.
