Was thinking about getting one. Anyone have an opinions? Do they work as Garmin claims they do?

Yep, works great, use mine all the time. Does everything they claim, just make sure to keep it updated and understand how to use it.

Confirmed & Brotsky x2. Bluetooth/app feature works great for me. FYI, I use the Freedom plan ($35/month) and shut it down in off-season.

Use a better caribener to hook to your pack, trust me it can come off

Bob H, I'm still puzzled about why anyone would want to attach it to a pack unless expecting a heart attack and need to have the SOS button ready to punch on an instant's notice?

Good point, guess my only excuse was it had a carabiner and pack shoulder strap had a loop. Next one will be in a pocket

I like mine on my pack, because it seems to grab satellite better when I'm walking, and I can hear when messages come in. I will have to get a locking carabiner, thanks for the heads up, Bob!
