 Vantage Point software grabs your PQ and cache page images (not log images) and

copies them to the GPS

 Display of memory used/free.

 Easy upload to geocaching.com of your finds and logs

Dislikes:

 Distances less than 1 mile (5280 feet) show as feet and not decimals of a mile. So ¼ of a

mile away is 1320 feet rather than .25 miles that I am used to!

 To enter text you use an on screen keyboard to select letters which is split across two

screens. This makes writing logs and notes very fiddly.

 The Oregon has an option to show very large text in fields which is very useful if you

normally wear glasses as I do to read. The 710 doesn’t have this feature, fields all have

the same default text size.

Conclusion

I really liked the 710, felt nice to hold, easy to find things in the menu and switch between

options. Geocaching was simple and easy. The ability to store multiple PQ’s of caches and

waypoints in folders – the only limit is the size of the storage available is very neat. You then

switch between PQ’s. Excellent quality pre-loaded Summit maps. The onscreen keyboard is

fiddly to use with the split screen so I won’t be writing any logs with it! Adding a waypoint (mark

your location) was initially fiddly until I put a short cut to the option on the One Touch menu.

Would I swap it for my Oregon 550? Yes!

Useful Information

The user guide for the Magellan 710/610/510 can be downloaded from their website and is

very comprehensive and in color, including lots of screen shots.
