Just thought I would pass this on, as it is that time of the year. Personally I have always said I prefer my Range Finder as it is more condusive to what I use it for. My main beef with Skycaddie is that you pay for the courses, and if your course is not there which all of the courses I regularly play are not, you get only front, and center of the green.
Well I was messing around with intelligolf and saw you get 3 other points and thought I might check out a GPS for my palm as they are only about $100. In doing so, and by looking for 3rd party software to rig with a Skycaddie, I ran accross another Golf GPS. It allows Front, back, center and 8 other entered points. So no need to pay for a commonly played course. Not yet sure the direction I will head between one for my Palm or this one, as I may find other uses for the one on my palm, but thought it was worth mentioning for the Christmas season. I certainly would opt for it over Skycaddie, and most of the reviews I saw were pretty decent. I may opt for this as I already have a very nice Garmin Navagation system for my car, and an handheld model for hiking.

Looks like you can order them from Golfsmith as well, but none of the stores in my area have them in stock.
