+TeamDS Posted May 2, 2005 Share Posted May 2, 2005 I know the Explorist 500 and 600 have nice color screens, and the 600 have the compass, But for those of us who want the best bang for the buck under $300, the Explorist 300 might be the goods. Can anyone post photo's of the screens of the 400. Im particularly interested in the readibility of the screen in sunlight, and how good the backlight is. thanks in advance Quote Link to comment
+embra Posted May 2, 2005 Share Posted May 2, 2005 I still haven't heard that the $279 on the 500 at this Harmony Computers page was no longer being honored. As far as the 400, it's going to be a short wait yet I think. The last I had heard was the end of May; there may be a revision to that. Quote Link to comment
+tr0n Posted May 3, 2005 Share Posted May 3, 2005 I almost bought the 400, but when I noticed how close the prices were between the 400 and 500, I had to have color. I am glad that I picked the 500 now. I can't believe I ever even considered the 400. Just an opinion for you. Quote Link to comment
+TeamDS Posted May 3, 2005 Author Share Posted May 3, 2005 I stiill see the price difference being $100 unless you guys are seeing better Explorist prices out there. also still have to convince the wife its a good buy :-( I have a pocket pc with gps for geocaching at the moment, but worry about tramping out in the woods and possible damaging it, dropping it , getting it wet etc. Im hoping to keep the pocket pc in the car and then use an explorist for the final on foot persuit to the cache.

+embra Posted May 3, 2005 Share Posted May 3, 2005 (edited) I stiill see the price difference being $100 unless you guys are seeing better Explorist prices out there. Are you seeing 400 prices $100 less than the $279 price on the 500 I listed above? Edit: or is it the case that Harmony is no longer honoring that special? (If so, I'll stop hawking it.)

+TeamDS Posted May 4, 2005 Author Share Posted May 4, 2005 I see explorist 400 for $229 and Explorist 500 for $319 thats $90 more for just the color screen. I havnt see that $279 price anywhere lately for the 500 model. Quote Link to comment
+JeepCachr Posted May 4, 2005 Share Posted May 4, 2005 I see explorist 400 for $229 and Explorist 500 for $319thats $90 more for just the color screen. I havnt see that $279 price anywhere lately for the 500 model. Click on Embra's link above to Harmony computer. It shows $279 and there is a big note at the top of the page that says all of our products are new and in stock unless otherwise noted. I don't see any note on the page saying its not in stock.

+Milbank Posted May 4, 2005 Share Posted May 4, 2005 Has anyone ordered from Harmony computer and got that price? I'm looking at getting the Legend C or the Explorist 500. The Harmony Price looks preaty good. Quote Link to comment
+embra Posted May 4, 2005 Share Posted May 4, 2005 I got both my 500 and my Meriplat from Harmony; I believe JamieZ got his 500 from them as well. They've been around for a number of years...I think I ordered a printer from them in the late 90's. They're ok by me. Quote Link to comment
Dosido Posted May 4, 2005 Share Posted May 4, 2005 Indeed, I've seen several posts from people that have gotten the unit (Explorist 500) from Harmony at the $279 price - including me. You can put it in the cart, and it says it's in stock, so I would surmise that they're still honoring the price. Brian Quote Link to comment
+Muddler Posted May 5, 2005 Share Posted May 5, 2005 I too got mine from Harmony. The Shipping price is a little steep ($15) but that still beats any other price I have found. Quote Link to comment
