The new units are already posted on Garmin's website. Looks like they've made them thinner as well. Way to go Garmin!

The last thing I want to do is have to spend yet even more money and download more maps that should've been included in the first place at no extra cost.

On top of that, the maps for pedestrian use are limited. It's not a "I'll be guided wherever I walk" type of thing. The pedestrian maps only cover certain areas and that's it. Stupid.

So in other words, pedestrian mode really doesn't work - and not at all out of the box. It's just a bait and switch marketing ploy.]]>Mar 31st 2009 2:50AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/03/04/garmin-nuvi-1200-and-1300-hands-on/http://www.engadget.com/2009/03/04/garmin-nuvi-1200-and-1300-hands-on/
"...pedestrian navigation capability enabled through optional CityXplorer maps, which are available for select tourist destinations in North America and Europe..."


Select tourist destinations? I want to be guided wherever I go!!! Not just in select tourist destinations.

Once again, these are the maps that Garmin is charging extra for and that have to be downloaded.

Repeat: pedestrian mode doesn't work.

Complete fail.]]>Mar 31st 2009 3:00AM
