Johnny Appleseed has a great deal on the Garmin Oregon 300 GPS. $329 + shipping. Can be picked up from there stores in QLD,NSW,VIC. Estimate shiping said $9. There are new Oregon’s coming out and this model has been superseded. Best price on shopbot is about $550. I have been looking to get a new GPS for a while and this is the best price I have seen on a great Garmin.

I tried to price grantee at Anaconda but there system had updated there price to $329 to match Appleseed. Otherwise there RRP is $649 on this unit. BTW Anaconda is out of stock at most stores if you don’t want to goto a Appleseed store.

This is not a In-car type GPS. It is a outdoor GPS.

Standout features.
*MicroSD card slot.
*Single axis electronic compass (must be held flat unlike the x50 models with 3 axis)
*Geocaching Friendly
*Barometric Altimeter

I will keep an eye on this post and try to answer what questions I can as a keen GPS user.

edit Overseas prices are stating to follow suit. Looks like the 300 will be ran out at a bargain price in most stores.
