I am very pleased with the Alpha 200 Plus, I wish I could find a nice case for it like I had for the Alpha 100. I have attached a picture of the case.

I've bean using Garmin tracking devices since the Astro 220 and DC40s. The Alpha 100 was a good device, and amazingly long-lasting technology, but the 200 Plus is a definite improvement. It's a lot more straightforward and easy to set up, and more intuitive to use.
I only have two real criticisms. One is that the three training buttons are dead feeling--there's very little tactile feedback that you're actually pushing a button. They barely move at all and there is no "click". The 100 is better in this respect.
The other is that I'd like a way to lock the outside buttons without also locking the training buttons.
Other than those two things I'm happy with it. It tracks well and the user interface much better.
