Question about Magellan eXplorist GC GPS?

Question about Magellan eXplorist GC GPS?For anyone that owns this GPS and uses it for geocaching: does this require you to be a premium member on geocaching.com to go paperless? I was reading a review for the GPS and someone said
"One great thing about this GPS is that you can go all the way paperless. What someone people may think is a down side is that you have to be a premium member, on geocaching.com."
Is this true? And also, how do you personally like this GPS?
Thanks!

The short answer is that paperless caching is not possible without premium membership. The paperless info is in the .gpx files, and they are only available to premium members. Sorry, can't address the eXplorist GC since I use a different type (but I do cache paperless). I don't know how being a premium member is a large downside - it's only $ 30/yr and it helps to keep the site running and up to date.
