Leaked: Garmin Oregon 500 & 500T - Touchscreen Handheld GPS with Camera

GarminOregon400t.jpg
REI has apparently leaked specs to the new Garmin Oregon 500 and 500T handheld GPS units that will of course be based on the touchscreen Oregon series but add a camera to the mix. This is not a big surprise given that the Oregon 400 units can already hold and share images of your outing. I would imagine (hope) that the units come with the ability and integration to take the picture and then if selected, upload the results along with your report to the cache log entry for the Geocaching website. I would expect that at least the pictures would be goetagged for later reference.

Check out the image and scroll down for info on the REI spec sheet.
