Re: [ST] Garmin GPS deal?



 > Browsing the other day, I ran across the Garmin GPS III for sale at $199.99.

if this is really the III, and not the III+, then hasn't it been
discontinued by Garmin?  someone must be selling old stock.  the
difference is that in addition to the basemap (which they both have),
the III+ can be downloaded with detailed maps of a specific area -- the
III cannot.  that being said, i've toured for a good 20K or 30K miles
with my III, and have almost never wanted the more detailed maps.  the
combination of built-in basemap, plus the paper map you'll have with you
anyway, is just fine.
