Good, but could be improved 
2008-03-05
The carrying case material is good, with good terminations. I use my Garmin unit while rowing in the Paraná Delta near Tigre, Buenos Aires, and I find it provides good protection for the occasional splash of water. I have also taken it along in dusty hiking trails, and it serves its purpose very well.
The only thing that I wish were different is that the case requires that the receiver is [at least partially] removed from case to connect it to the USB cable (to download log files) or to the 12VDC power cable (when using it in the car).
Good protection 
2008-02-14
This is a great product. Ive seen others comment on poor screen visualization which I can possibly understand if they don't use the backlight. I always have my backlight turned on in the day as well and haven't had an issue. Good product for normal use, good price as well.
A great cover 
2008-02-13
I was a little skeptical of using this cover at first but since it came as part of the package deal I thought I would try it. Now I feel it is well worth it. What it gives you is protection from screen scratches and a belt clip for holding the gpsr hands free. In addition the padding gives you a better grip on the unit. You don't have to remove it to use the cable for downloads and all the buttons are uncovered. (You do have to remove it to install fresh batteries.)
Returned Item 
2008-02-08
The Garmin Vista is difficult to read without the clear plastic cover afforded by the carry case. When in the carry case, I could barely read the Vista's screen at all. The clear plastic that goes over the Garmin screen was too shiney and difficult to see through when out in the sun. Also, the case is bulky and significantly increases the size of the Vista. I sent it back. Thanks to Amazon for having such good customer service and allowing returns including shipping costs. I would have been very disappointed if I had been stuck with this carry case, as I would not use it. I would have given it zero stars, but a 1 is as low as it gets on the choices.
Useful in the field 2008-01-13
This was a good buy for anyone doing extensive work in the field with your GPS. I hike quite a bit with my GPS and found the lanyard troublesome to use. I didn't like have the GPS hanging around my neck, swinging to an fro, so this is a good solution. Assuming you wear a belt, its an easy clip on, clip off and use right in the case. The case is specifically designed to keep all the buttons clear and free for use and it works well. A nice way to keep your GPS handy but securely strapped to your belt if you find yourself climbing a hill, fording a stream or whatever your adventures may get you into! I recommend a buy over using the lanyard this comes with your Garmin GPS.
fits well 2008-06-24
Like others, I'm tough on handheld items. This case, although not armor, will help in reducing damage to your GPS. It will clip on your belt and fits snuggly to the unit. The screens can be easily read though the plastic window.
OK, but not that useful--Updated!

I received this case with my new etrex Venture. If came in a bundle with the Mapsource software, a USB cable and a lanyard. However, on my unit at least, the belt clip slides into a pouch on the back of the unit. The first time down the trail, the case slipped off the belt clip and dropped softly to the ground. Not acceptable! It will provide protection for your unit and the screen, the buttons are accessible, but not being able to clip it *securely* to clothing or a pack limits it's usability.
Update: I just received the Micropak case from GPS Outfitters (on Amazon but currently not being sold). It's a big improvement--a belt clip and a belt loop, pockets for accessories, a carry strap, attachment loop--and the Garmin etrex *with* the supplied case fits in it snug as a bug.
The Perfect Partner for You Garmin GPS 2008-05-12
This is the perfect partner for you Garmin GPS system, it protects your GPS from dust, water, fall downs and scratches on the screen.
Case performs poorly 2008-05-12
After two weeks of using the Garmin Carrying Case I put it away, probably for good. The reason for this is that it just simply is not ergonomic. As you can see in the picture, the case butts right up against the menu button and also enter button for the Vista HCx making these buttons very difficult and frustrating to use. It is also very difficult to get the gps unit in and out of the case. It would have been better to have made a 'hard' case in which the unit was meant to be removed to be used. I bought a small 'fanny' pack to use instead for geocaching and just put the unit, sans case, in that; that works out better. I cannot recommend this case at all.

It fits the Garmin eTrex very well, leaving it usable and may save it from damage in case I drop it.
