I've owned the SkyCaddie SG4 for 2 years now. I hate it. Worst computer/user interface ever. It's as if it was programmed using the same technology as the Commador 64. Need to remove battery everytime I start it up otherwise it won't find a signal. Doesn't work on cloudy days. Don't understand why it take the SkyCaddie 15+ minutes to locate my position when my iPhone can do it in couple seconds. Find another brand or if you have an iPhone, download an app for a one time charge of $30 versus the $30 annual fee to use this doorstop of a gadget

I am finised with this product. Although adequate on course, it is impossible to download courses in less than an hour. It should be the poster child for computer hell. I would rather have the yips than be forced into another session of updating my software and downloading a course. Do not buy this product.

I bought two of these recently, one for a friend. Was out playing the other day with him and another guy. We all had different sky caddies, the 2.5, the 4 and the 5. They all agreed with each other all the time, they were extremely accurate and brilliantly mapped. The only difficulty with the SG4 is, why oh why do they have that awful connecting lead. Beware and do not overtighten the little grub-screw. What was wrong with the standard USB connector on the 2.5 and 5. Also, a little tip. If you fit the connecting lead upside down you can charge the unit via a USB port. Found that out by accident. All in all, brilliant piece of equipment, awful connector. The new software and features on skygolf make this a great value, older type system with all modern bells and whistles

Must agree with most, very bad power cable design. That being said. The SG4 I have works great, have had no problems with GPS issues for 3 years. The threads did strip on the adapter screw, contacted the company, they were very helpful, did have to pay for shipping, but that was all. Received product back in approx 3 weeks. No problem since I live in the UP of MI and didn't need to use the product. I've been using for the last 4 1/2 months with no problems. So if you want to gamble on the poor power design, the product is a great buy.
Update, also upgraded product and had problems with computer recognizing device. Contacted customer service who were extremely helpful. Walked me through several questions. When connecting the cable to the device the cord must run down on the back of unit before the computer will recognize. Once I did that no problems with computer or downloading courses or the new program upgrade. Hope this was helpful.

I bought this in Dec 2007. When it works, it's great to have on the course. But I have had problems with it.
1) The cable that you charge it with and use to synch with your PC to download courses is difficult to attach. You have to work at it.
2) Initially, I often had trouble getting it to connect up with satellites and give me a reading on the course. Then suddenly, on, say Hole 13, it would come to life. This problem seemed to happen on cloudy days. However, earlier this year (2009), SkyGolf came forth with a software upgrade that improved performance remarkably. I no longer have this problem.
3) Now the device isn't recognized by my PC and SkyGolf says I must send it in for repair at a cost of $35-$100. It cost over $300 to buy in the first place and I must pay $30 a year to download courses. To have it malfunction after a year and a half and have to pay up to $100 to fix it just seems a bit much.
If I were going to buy a similar device today, I think I'd look around for a less expensive, more reliable device.
