I have to agree I had an issue with my 400t and got NO help.  After having it for several months it started showing my position on the map off by yards or more depending on the zoom level and they pretty much told me "oh well that's the way it works".

That is the way it works.

Yeah, that is the way it works. Normally I get 30 feet worth of accuracy from my GPS's, if I'm within 30 feet of what I'm looking for I normally can find it.

They use to be worse off but Clinton took out the "dithering" that the DoD use to use.

Well I don't know if that is the way it is supposed to work but all summer I got down to like 10 feet or better then it just changed on me.  I went through like 3 units from REI (their returns are great and I got the 400t for like $350) and finally the one I have is back to it.  I like to Geocache and before that happened I was able to get right on top of the cache and then suddenly I was off by a mile but my most current unit works just great.

I've had nothing but good things to say about them. Last time I needed them I broke the battery door(my fault) on my 60 CSx and it took less than 10 min to call and have it resolved. They had me a new battery door by the end of the week free of charge.
