Ok, so after a day geocaching with 3.20, I can only be satisfied. I had a very good accuracy and no freezes or shutdowns (didn't trigger the knwon shutdown offcourse). The accuracy was always around 3 to 4 meters. I was once under tree cover, but there was no problem compared to my OR450, the accuracy went to about 5 or 6 meters.
The compass was the whole day stable an was always pointing me in the right direction.
So for me, the unit has improved so much that I now even like it more then my OR450.
So happy fellow here for the moment, 3.20 stays on my unit.

Sounds very promising to me, so maybe we have a good v3.30 early this week.....

Very well!

I am running it on one of my Oregon 650t, and find the GPS accuracy appears to be much improved.

As most already know, Garmin removed the firmware from their servers after many bugs were quickly detected by users like yourself.

If you are unsure about 3.20, you can see the current bug list here: [Only registered and activated users can see links. ]

And a good discussion about v3.20 can be found here: [Only registered and activated users can see links. ]

Enjoy!
