+poppoppig Posted October 1, 2007 Share Posted October 1, 2007 Have I just flipped or am I just imagining that Garmin had a Venture HCx model? I see the Venture HC and the Venture CX. Help, please. Quote Link to comment
+Chuy! Posted October 1, 2007 Share Posted October 1, 2007 I don't recall seeing a venture HCx available on the Garmin website. I don't mean to be a smart aleck, but why can't you check the website yourself? Quote Link to comment
+poppoppig Posted October 1, 2007 Author Share Posted October 1, 2007 Chu, I'm sure you saw where I said: " I see the Venture HC and the Venture CX." I did look and did not see a Venture HCx. That was my question, and there is even mention of one in another topic in the Getting Started forum today. It must be discontinued,thanks for your not being a smart aleck!! Quote Link to comment
gallet Posted October 1, 2007 Share Posted October 1, 2007 There never was a Venture HCx this is part of a game Garmin are playing called "messing with your mind" the object of this silly game is to trick consumers into getting the wrong GPSr and then having to upgrade because, for example they decided that 'hey don't need to load maps and I want the H receivers so I'll get the Venture HC', then later they discover that it only has 14 hours battery life, Doh!

Well, if you checked the website and didn't see it listed, that should have answered your question. I have a Venture Cx and asked myself the same question when the "H" models were announced. When you think about it, there never should have been a Venture Cx; hardware-wise, it was identical to a Legend Cx. But, it is silly to have a Venture HC but not an "x" when you have a Cx. I think the marketing dept had a brain fart here. Quote Link to comment
+oisact Posted October 2, 2007 Share Posted October 2, 2007 Yeah, I thought it was silly having a completely different model, with a different name and color, just so they could stick a CD and Micro SD card in the box. Dan Quote Link to comment
