Hi,
I read somewhere that the GPS60CS has a reduced battery life due to the extra features. This could be an issue if the unit isnt going to be used plugged into an external power source.
I have the 60CS and really like it. I havent had any real reason so far to use the altimeter except as a nice-to-have gadget to look at hills I've just cycled over. The electronic compass seems to be useful when you are walking around too slowly for the GPS to work out your bearing from your movement. Dont know how much use this would be driving around though?
If I was to buy one again I would probably go for the 60C. However so far I havent used it on a big trip so there may well be good reasons to get the electronic compass that I dont know about yet!
Cheers, Andrew
