Haven't used them myself, but everyone i've spoken too who has, says they are crap compared to the Garmin gear.

I dont know of anyone actually owning one. I see post where people talk about them or say they saw, have a freind that owns one or tested one but not someone that had one and used it.
I dont think they have a map page like the garmin and only tell you the distance and direction but if for those of us haveing problems burning up the garmins it could be a fix if you hook it up to a laptop in the truck with a maping program.
I would have already tried but it is an overseas company and it is enough of a pain in the arcse to send the garmins back every few months to get repaired the shipping would kill you.
We are all still waiting to see if Marshall is really going to come out with their GPS/Telementry system they keep pushing back the release date on. I think they are alot further than the let on to because if it was close the testers would have them and it would leak out somewhere.

There is a review on here from someone who has actually used it -- he gives the pro's and con's of it.

her is a link
viewtopic.php?f=20&t=10659of the three i know about that are GPS Garmin is the best but still has a lot of problems to work through. if you live with a max guarenteed 2 mile range (after buying the long range antenna) it is awsome.
the other is romeo and it is just not set up for a hound hunter
if you want telementry I am changing to Marshall check them out
I still run telementry and gps because if a dog gets out of pocket garmin just does not cut it.
