jackmaker's Full Review: Magellan GPS 310 Handheld GPS Receiver
I bought my 310 from Fry's Electronics several years ago. It worked reliably for about a year, then it wouldn't provide a position any more. It acts like it is tracking satellites, but it doesn't update the lat/lon and the time keeps getting offset. I suspect the firmware has been corrupted, but there is no way to verify that since Magellan has discontinued the model and it doesn't have any diagnostics. No changes to setup or reinitialization have fixed the problem. Failed after one year of use. Very limited serial interface (just NMEA output).
