Montana 600 Review
For a hand-held GPS, the Montana 600 certainly is big, but in a market where space efficiency and compactness are paramount, Garmin have made great use of the addition space cramming in a huge number of features and enhancements.
The most immediately obvious of these is the screen size. Measuring a whopping 4 inches diagonally across, Montana’s touch screen can display information more clearly than any other GPS on the market and is both sunlight readable and glove friendly.
The Montana also resolves the battery-life issues that have been a consistent issue for GPS users by incorporating a rechargeable back-up power supply. Although, like the Oregon and GPSMAP 62, the Montana uses AA batteries as its main power supply- giving 22hrs power- the rechargeable add-on gives a further 16hrs once the Duracell bunny’s cymbals fall silent- a total of 38hrs.
Another great thing about the Montana 600 is its versatility. Whether you’re on foot, in a car, motorcycling or even in a boat, Montana has the technology to navigate to your destination with total reliability. Hotfix technology, so successfully employed with the Oregon and GPSMAP 62, makes another appearance with the Montana to give it a satellite connection you can rely on.
The Montana’s mapping capabilities are second to none. Not only is it compatible with the extensive range of Garmin maps already available but also comes with ‘Birdseye’ technology which is a nifty bit of software enabling you to scan paper maps and then overlay them onto Google maps to create your own raster maps. The Montana 650T has the added bonus of a topographic European base map.
The Montana’s huge 3GB memory allows you to store an unprecedented 4000 waypoints and as many geo-tagged images as you’re ever likely to need- users of the 650 and 650T will also be able to take their own geo-tag photos using the 5 megapixel camera built into the device. Geo-tags can be uploaded to Garmin Base Camp online to share with other adventurers who can use your geo-tags when creating their own routes- it’s great for geo-caching too.
