I've got the birdseye and love it! I rarely find myself using the screen on my garmin that shows the compass pointing in the direction of the dog. It shows me every little sendaro creek and road on the ranch and has helped me get ahead of a dog heading toward a highway before he had the chance to cross it.

Yes but when u zoom in its not as clear. It's good till u get zoomed in to about the 100yrd range.

Same as daytime. It's not real time Ariel map. It's like the google earth maps. All maps are day time pics.

Yeah its actually an exact copy of google maps, and like he said it does get blurry if you zoom in too close, but the reason I like it so much is I can avoid creeks, and see where I can drive up too the bay without guessing. It saves alot of walking!
