dampeoples Posted March 27, 2005 Share Posted March 27, 2005 I was checking to see if my eTrex was up to date, and the latest version they offer on the site is 2.14, while my eTrex tells me it's running v3.0. It just seems weird that there is such a large gap, and no updates in between. Anyone have any sort of answer? Quote Link to comment
+Rubberhead Posted March 27, 2005 Share Posted March 27, 2005 It's my understanding that Garmin has started shipping an updated yellow etrex with new hardware that includes features such as WAAS. You were lucky to get this new version. I'm guess that you can't find anything on the new version on the website because Garmin wants give retailers a chance to sell their stocks of older version yellows. Quote Link to comment
dampeoples Posted March 27, 2005 Author Share Posted March 27, 2005 Yeah, this is the second eTrex yellow I have owned, I was kind of surprised that it supported WAAS, when I didn't remember the other one I had doing so. FWIW, I got it at Target, along with a video, I think it was called an adventure pack or something, I was hoping for something besides a video Quote Link to comment
+Xilo Posted April 6, 2005 Share Posted April 6, 2005 How much was it? Anyone know if there's a way to tell from the packaging if an eTrex is the new version? Quote Link to comment
dampeoples Posted April 7, 2005 Author Share Posted April 7, 2005 It was $99, same as a regulr eTrex. It doesn't look any different, but i think it mentioned that it was WAAS capable on the box. I didn't really read it, as I have owned a yellow before, and it was the same price. Quote Link to comment
