@sparkyinwa you are right, however, electronic (magnetic, not by GPS-position change) compasses actually work better when pointed downwards towards the closest pole, since the magnetic lines of the earth magnetic field have a 'dip angle'.
With mechanical compasses its close to level (since they are made to hang horizontal) decreasing its dip to a few degrees, but also making it less sensitive the closer it is to the poles. Dip angle is about the same as lattitude, so for england 50deg.

OMG! Hysterically yours! What a rollercoaster of shit! We are talking about GPS and enjoying outdoor and nature. What are you selling apart from nerve-wrecking, panicking psuedojournalism and editing follies?
It is the last shit ever seen!

The Garmin GPSmap60 and 62 series are much easier to use and much better than Lowrance and Magellen. Not sure about Satmap as I haven't used Satmap before.

I Think that the problem of the Garmin was not really the Gadget, but the USER!!!

as you note the GPSr works fine in any orientation, though the antenna is more accurate in one orientation than another. It is the magnetic compass that needs to be level. So if you are on the screen following a bearing it won't work unless you hold it pretty close to the screen being horizontal. any of the other views are fine in any orientation.
