That's the one. I oft wonder what they mean by 'refurbished'. Checked to
be complete and working would be more like it - I can't see them doing
anything else.

I have a refurbished Garmin 12XL. They get properly refurbished, case
cracked, 100% inspection and repair/replacement of components and then
reassembled and resealed. It's done by Garmin themselves and the units
are certificated with a schedule of repairs.

Or at least they were when I bought mine. The one I got was a "returned
from the Gulf - no longer needed for a war" unit. It still works well.
