 |
|
I'm considering buying one of the Navman Bluetooth GPS units to use with a Palm T3. Often (including on the Navman website) the model number is 4460.
However I've seen reference elsewhere to a 4470 - is there such a thing, and if so what is the difference between the two?
Thanks in advance
Glenn. |

Hi Glen,
The 4470 isn't on sale yet. In fact it hasn't even officially been announced by Navman but to all intents and purposes it is the same hardware as the 4460 but it will ship with the new V3 software. Many retailers and etailers appear to be taking advance orders. It would be well worth waiting for the V3 software unless you can get a sensible upgrade price from Navman. It might be worth asking them about their upgrade policy for items which are, say, under six months old.

Ah, that's interesting, thanks for the clarification. I'm in no great rush, so I'll hang on for the 4470 - I definitely want the latest version of the software.

I just bought a Navman 4460 for Palm OS5 at Amazon.com for $161US.
I can't find it anywhere else for under $260!
I suggest if anyone wants one, grab it from Amazon.com |
