As does my Garmin eTrex 20. I have one that supports WAAS but it
doesn't work that well this far north. They don't mention it in most of
the newer receivers. Maybe some day Galileo will be functional. I
haven't seen any that do BeiDou unless there are units aimed at the
Asia-Pacific market.

how far north , i'm near alaska and mine works

 47 N. To clarify: the GPS works fine but WAAS wasn't too useful in this
area.

 "For some users in the U.S., the position of the satellites over the
equator makes it difficult to receive the signals when trees or mountains
obstruct the view of the horizon. WAAS signal reception is ideal for open
land and marine applications. "
 I haven't experimented in a dew years but I can turn WAAS/GLONASS on or
off and I never saw any improvement. Trees and mountains are part of my
life.
