New Value-level Handhelds
Despite it leaking all over the internet, Garmin was still keeping officially mum until today about the next line of handhelds. Basically, they will be adding the high-sensitivity SiRF StarIII (or cheaper equivalent) chip to the eTrex Legend Cx and Vista Cx, resulting in a Legend HCx and Vista HCx. There will also be a Venture HC model, which seems aimed at replacing the old eTrex Legend, and a new eTrex H, essentially a high-powered yellow eTrex. The new guys will allegedly be compatible with the Galileo system as well, via a drop-in chip. Too bad Galileo won't be out for another dozen years or so.
