Garmin have gone public with their new kit (link below). Await our roving reporter Dave 'goboatingnow' feed back from METS in Amsterdam
Garmin New Marine Lineup
Overview of 4000, 500 and 400 series
GPSMAP 4012
I'm not surprised they've relooked at G2, it didn't quite stack up against Navionics Platinum, but their G2 Vision could be a leap ahead of that! But what will it all cost Ted? Time will tell Mrs Doyle, now go and get me a nice cup of tea and a rasher sangwitch! Ok so Fr! /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif
I suppose I'll have to play with one of these. My trusty 2106 has done it's duty this season, so it'll be off to ebay pronto, or perhaps not! This stuff is not due to hit the USA shelves UNTIL Q2 2007 , and judging by last years delays, we could be lucky to see this stuff in Europe before 2008!
Early marketing ploy to get folk to hold off buying competitors gear, could backfire and cause folk about to buy Garmin to hold off too and wait for the newer range. Could affect Q1, Q2 sales, and it misses LIBS 2007! Still I love their gear, might be worth the wait. Gadgets, Gadgets /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif
