+D & K Posted November 18, 2004 Share Posted November 18, 2004 I was at Costco last night and they had a Magellan GPS. I didn't pay much attention to it but I did notice it was $129.00 dik Quote Link to comment
+soreyes Posted November 18, 2004 Share Posted November 18, 2004 That might have been the explorist 200. i was at Costco last night as well (too bad I didn't know you were there or I would have said hi). They had two magellans on the floor. Sporttrak color for about 2 hundo, and then the exp 200. I didn't note the price on that one since I was busy getting hung up on how tiny it was. Too bad it doesn't have connectivity. Quote Link to comment
+planetrobert Posted November 18, 2004 Share Posted November 18, 2004 I too saw the exp200 for that price. Quote Link to comment
+D & K Posted November 18, 2004 Author Share Posted November 18, 2004 Yes now that you mention it, it was the Explorist 200. Which Costco were you at? I was in Tustin, CA Quote Link to comment
instafar Posted November 18, 2004 Share Posted November 18, 2004 I saw it too in the Houston store. Magellan really missed the boat when they made the eXplorist with no PC connectivity. At least they could have put it in the 300. They will lose a lot of business to Garmin because of it. I am going to buy the eTrex Vista instead. Quote Link to comment

Yes, entering Lat/Longs will be a pain, but it will be good training for my girls... they need to know that not everything is entry-free! Very nice, lightweight unit. Finds fix fast. Maps are pretty good. I would not want to use it for a primary cache unit. Quote Link to comment
+JohnnyVegas Posted November 20, 2004 Share Posted November 20, 2004 Yes now that you mention it, it was the Explorist 200.Which Costco were you at? I was in Tustin, CA The sport track on Clearance at Radio shack for $169.00 will the $30.00 rebate from Magellans web site with a final price of $139.00 would be a better deal. $10.00 more and you have a better GPS Quote Link to comment
