I've only heard of it being an issue with the 800.

When I had a problem that appeared it could be an instance of the recording problem, it was a real pain to deal with (the unit froze up hard).

Even with that potential issue, it appears the 800 is more reliable than the newer units. In my experience, in the rare cases I do have issues with the 800, restarting the course reliably fixes the problem.

In my experience, the Touring was much less reliable: the "turn guidance" failed too frequently and it wasn't correctable by restarting the route.
