Default How is GPS on Polaris compared with Trinity

At the moment I'm thinking of getting a Polaris, but I've been offered a 2nd hand trinity that I'm also considering.

How is the GPS performance between the two. If the polaris is much better then I'll probably go with that instead.
Cheers

The GPS on Polaris is really better. It's really more sensible. I can also get it to work during flights while it was not possible with my previous Trinity. I'm really satisfied of the GPS of Polaris.

And also it works with QuickGPS downloading ephemeris from internet...it's really quick to get fix.

GPS on Polaris is on COM4 ad 9600 baud

Changed from the Trinity to a Touch in July. I REALLY miss 3G but I love the size of the Touch. I'm starting to consider a Cruise but the size & shape seem a bit awkward. How does it compare to the Trinity's size and weight? I store them in my pocket. Any issues with the scroll wheel in a pocket?
