The name "Garmin" is synonymous with "GPS," the way "Q-Tip" is synonymous with "auditory hygiene." And the Colorado 400t doesn't let us down: Its light, curved form fits easily in your palm. Navigating the great-looking interface one-handed feels easy with the help of a soft click-wheel. 3-D view helps you visualize vertical grade — as in, "We have to climb up ... that?" But included trip and waypoint software isn't Mac-compatible, and the Mac packages online are cumbersome and hard to use. Even slight bumps in travel made it short out. Garmin, listen, you're great. Now stop resting on your laurels, and reeeeally wow us.
