Alright thanks! Guess ill pick up an oregon cause I cant wait a year XD

Woops, didnt specify Garmin =) simply because I have another garmin already and can use the maps. But the lowrence ones look very nice!

How often are new series of handheld gps's released, if you had to make a guess when would you say the next one will come out. Trying to decide whether to grab the oregon or wait for next series with fixed/better/added features ect.

Okay, me and my girlfriend have recently picked up geocaching, since she got a GPS for christmas. Its a car gps nuvi and its been doing ok for caches but I think we want a hand held one to make things a little easier. I have been looking around and found an oregon for a decent price, my question to you fellow geocachers is, should I grab the oregon or will a new model of handheld be released by garmin sometime in the near future that I might be better off waiting for. I know there are some features missing on the oregon that I would like, and I have heard negative things about the screen in sunlight, though im not too worried about that one. I dont know how often a new model is released but if a new one with added features is going to come out in say the next 4-5 months I would rather wait and grab that instead!
