GPS Steals and Deals - 2/3
Lots of news this week on traffic reporting and services. I rolled a lot of it up and posted about the Future of Traffic Reporting on GPS Systems. We also learned this week that TomTom shipped a few TomTom 910 GO's with a virus late last year. I guess if it can happen to Apple, it can happen to anyone.
Steals and Deals
Coming into marathon training season, we see a $50 Rebate for the Garmin Forerunner 205 and 305's coming out recently. We also continue to see some rock bottom bargains on the Mio C310x and the Via Michelin X-930.
Fry's is still selling the Mio C310x systems: $198 with free shipping. Staples also has them for $269 online and in stores. - Check out my review of the Mio C310x.
Via Michelin X-930 - $179 at Amazon
Garmin Forerunner Rebate - $50 back on a Forerunner 205 or 305, which drops the prices down significantly.

Garmin Nuvi 350– recent price drops put it around $470.

The TomTom 910 has come down A LOT in the last few months, but has inched up a bit in the last week and is about $599 for this widescreened unit. Great if you have a Bluetooth phone and can use the TomTom PLUS system for weather, traffic (with subscription) and more.
Garmin StreetPilot C330 – Now below $320 for this very capable, maps pre-loaded device.
Garmin StreetPilot C340 – Think about moving up to the Garmin StreetPilot C530 whose price is down to $397. Won't speak street names, but Better chipset, and better screen for almost the same price ($10 more).
