GPS Steals and Deals - 3/17

Big news for the week has to be CeBit GPS Announcements:

  • Garmin Nuvi 200 series; also, I have a Nuvi 250 in for review.
  • Navigon 5100 and 7100 with innovative displays.
  • Garmin announced the Nuvi 600, 650 and 660FM
  • Mio and their C320, C520 and 520t


    The best deal of the week has to be the Lowrance 250C for $177, with an additional $10 off if you use Google Checkout. The Lowrance 250C looks like a decent entry level GPS. Haven't used it myself, but PCMag reviewed it.

    Highlights

  • Garmin Nuvi 350 dropped to $399,
  • Garmin Nuvi 360 adds Bluetooth to the Nuvi 350 capabilities and is now around $479.
  • Both of the above dropped about $50 this week.

  • TomTom ONE - around $280 See my Review of the TomTom ONE.
  • TomTom GO 510 - $367
  • TomTom GO 910 - $457
  • TomTom RIDER - $599



    The usual Steals and Deals

  • Fry's is still blowing out the Mio C310x at $189 . Sunday Paper Insert has Staples selling the MIo C310x for $199 (although a quick check of their site doesn't offer the C310x).

    More Info on the C310X from GPSLodge.

  • Price drop on Mio H610 travel companion - now $379 - see my review.

    Garmin Forerunner Rebate - $50 back on a Forerunner 205 or 305, which drops the prices down significantly.


    Other GPS's. Here’s a quick rundown:

  • Garmin Nuvi 660 - Price around $710 at Amazon. See our review - Also check out the GPSNow site for what has been often a lower price, and Order by 5PM weekdays, you get same day cheap shipping.

  • Garmin Nuvi 670 - Need to travel to Europe and navigate when you get there? Garmin Nuvi 670 comes pre-loaded with both US and Euro maps. It's the very capable Nuvi 660 base unit with the extra maps pre-loaded.

  • Garmin StreetPilot C330 – Now around $275 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 $389. Won't speak street names, but Better chipset, and better screen for less money.
