The Garmin GPSMAP 76CSx has all the features of the GPSMAP 76CS, with two important differences. It uses a new SiRFstarIII high-sensitivity GPS receiver, which gives you GPS coverage even under dense foliage and in deep canyons. The GPSMAP 76CSx also does away with internal memory. It comes with a 128MB microSD flash memory card, so you can use multiple cards for navigation, or order a larger card to fit a bigger map segment in your unit. You can use the included USB cable to load your maps from your PC.
