I think it's about the same size as before, only the new antenna design made it appear to be longer.

Re: Finally, GPSMap 60CSx replacement!
Rumor on the web says GPS Map 62 series is probably using SiRFstarIV chipset while GPSMAP 78 is probably based on the STM Cartesio GPS chipset

Yes... Baby yes!!! 
Re: Garmin GPSMAP 62 series
Assuming it has a connector for external antenna, I wonder whether it is MMCX or MCX type.

Re: Garmin GPSMAP 62 series
I think it'll remain as MCX, just like the newly launched 78 series.
