Clean with a soft cloth. Avoid paper towels.
By Sandy10
The beautiful silvery metal used to form this bowl is very soft. I was very disappointed when I first cleaned my new bowl with the Nambe cleaning polish. The bowl lost it's mirror-bright shine and developed a softer patina. I did use a soft paper towel to clean my bowl that time, but I think the paper towel may have been too abrasive for the surface of the bowl. I have since cleaned it hundreds of times, with warm soapy water and a soft cloth, without further heartbreak.The reflective surface of the Nambe bowl multiplies everything within it, which is very pretty. One floating blossom, brimming with Christmas balls, or filled with red grapes, the effect is stunning . Use the bowl as a serving dish and bring a special accent to any meal. Chill with ice water, or heat by running hot tap water into it, and it will hold the temperature of the food while at the table. Transfer food into it just before serving, and store leftovers in a different container. The metal will mar easliy, so use caution when scooping or cleaning, and never use a fork or other scratching serving tool.My Mom gave this bowl to me for my birthday several years ago. It was my first piece of Nambe, and it took my breath away. We remain fascinated by the grace and beauty of this bowl. We love the enchanting bell sound it makes whenever it is lightly struck. The elegant lines and sparkle of this Nambe bowl make it special enough to keep on display, but using it often is even more delightful.

Another beautiful serving piece from Arthur Court
By shopaholic mom
This serving piece is really quite lovely. The aluminum base is just gorgeous. It has an open vine design with grapes and leaves. Also the aluminum is very low maintenance and unless you spill something very acidic on it, it will stay looking amazing for a long time. The aluminum base is 20 by 11 inches as measured from the very outer edges/handles. The included 3 quart glass Pyrex dish measures 13 by 9 inches and is a pretty standard size, meaning if this one happens to get broken, I will be able to replase it quite easily. I love the look and functionality of this piece and it makes a grand statement on any table!!

Lets go "GeoCaching!"
By Brian C. Barnes
This is my first handheld GPS. I'm using it for my new hobby - Geocaching. This unit works great. Use free software to download waypoints into the GPS, and then just follow where it points. The unit is small (fits in my pants pocket), and light, and has all the features you might need, including back-tracking if you make a wrong turn. It holds plenty of waypoints (locations) and 20 routes, which seems about standard for handheld units. It has several different ways of displaying navigation information, so you're bound to find one that works for you. If you're looking for something with lots of built in maps, then this may not be the right unit for you, as it only has a 2Mb base map and 6Mb for downloadable maps. For in-car navigation, I plug this little guy into my portable computer and run Microsoft Streets And Trips and get a whole computer full of maps. When going off-trail, I take just this unit, where maps aren't much help anyway. I've used it to locate 3 "geocaches" so far, and it has put me within a couple of feet every time. The WAAS support is great for getting good accuracy.

By the way - don't purchase the add-on memory SD card accessory - this GPS doesn't take add-on memory cards.

A Great Value
By R. Moroney
I've had this GPS for five months and am extremely satisfied with it. I've never before owned a product that gets better as time goes by as this one does. Magellan continues to update and improve the software. Their latest software revision added two of my favorite functions, average speed and maximum speed. It also can show you the terrain ahead, only Magellan offers that feature.

There is no question that it takes some study to learn all the possible functions this unit is capable of, and the users manual is marginal at best. But there are many other resources available. There's a Yahoo group devoted specifically to the SproTrac series. Folks there are willing to help with any question. If you are into newsgroups, check out sci.geo.satellite-nav. And a great place to begin your research into GPS's is at gpsinformation.net

Good Features, Nice Unit
By MARK A BOWDEN
I have a poor sense of direction and wanted a portable GPS unit to (1) use when traveling in unfamiliar places, and (2) to be able to map out some places by plotting points. I haven't plotted points yet, but have taken it on the road a fair bit.

I looked seriously at units from Magellan and Garmin, but decided on the SporTrak Map primarily because of its features and a ... rebate.

I have owned this unit for a little more than a month now, and really have enjoyed it. It has a nice "breadcrumb" tracking feature which will let you save a route previously traveled. It has plenty of memory for my uses, though I have not purchased map additions yet. The basic map included has major interstates, US highways, airports, cities and some other details.

I also purchased a cigarette-lighter power adapter for use on the road. The backlight feature has two levels of brightness, and I had been traveling for a little over two hours with the power adapter and the unit on "bright" when the backlight went off. It wouldn't come back on again despite pulling power, removing the batteries and reinitializing the unit (wiping out all memory). I got a return authorization from Magellan, sent the unit back via ground freight and got it back within a week, also via ground freight. The service was exceptional. Magellan even threw in a couple of goodies with my returned unit for my trouble.

I certainly recommend this unit, and the only reason that I didn't give it five stars was because of the light failure. Other than that, I have been very satisfied.
