Hi,
Primarily I apologize for my bad English.

I would buy a Artemis, there are reasons why I should not do this?
Some say it has a bad camera or GPS does not upgrade the position if you are walking.

I had an Alpine and was satisfied.

Thanks for your advice

Yes, that's true.
Bad (very bad) camera and GPS not designed for walkers.

Apart these issues, it's amazing.

(or, at least, this is my opinion)

True the camera is bad but the GPR is OK - I use it with Memory-Map on foot and on bicycle and the results are OK. How accurate do you need the GPS to be?

Agree.

The GPS is ok and has a good reception.

With "not designed for walkers" I meant it doesn't work in SIRF mode, which would allow to enable some features specifically designed for walkers.

Still, it's a good GPS receiver.
