I need something that can use my own manually created maps (using MOBAC), without size limitations, and the hiking GPS's I've looked at have all been too restrictive.
The Garmin Montana units look like nice devices, but they are considerably heavier and bulkier than a tablet, and quite a bit more expensive as well. Their real value is in the increased battery endurance and weatherproofing/ruggedisation, which I don't really need, I'm only going on 4/5 hours hikes, rather than multiple day treks.
