Brisk Sales of the Lowrance iWay 250C
Word has it that sales of the new Lowrance 250C GPS have been crisp, in the last few weeks since its launch. Inventories are tight for this diminutive value play in the market. The unit is small, but the list of features isn't. It's got a full 3.5" touchscreen, comes pre-loaded with NAVTEQ maps and Points of Interest on an SD card, and has MP3 playing and photo viewing capabilities. It's a pretty competitive price, and we'll be taking a look at it in the next few seeks for a review ourselves. We're looking forward to it.
