I did try one briefly, Steve, but apparently I never did write about it on Panbo (too many gizmos, too little time ;-) I liked it, except, like the Colorado, the screen could be brighter:

Easy to read in bright sunlight and at night. Hard to see display in mid-day shade.
Only other major gripe is that there is no setting for averaging displayed speed and course over a few seconds, so instantaneous values vary a lot.
