UK: PC World Garmin Quest @ £150

Apparently PCWorld are selling off Garmin Quest I's at £150 to make room for the new Quest II.

Was not totally sure if this belonged in the Navigation or sale/wanted section so apologies if I chose wrongly!

Cheers

150 quid is pretty good! GPS City in Canada has them for $470 Cdn.

Do you have a link? I tried www.pcworld.co.uk but didn't see any mention of the Quest. Thanks in advance!

Ekke,

Sorry, no, I don't have a link.

Here is all the info I was given "Garmin are bringing out a new Quest GPS - called Quest2 (paid consultants millions to come up with that one I'd guess).

Anyway PC World appear to be getting rid of old Quest stock - selling them off for £150 or less if you're lucky. You have to check you're local store as there's not many left.

The mapping software that comes with the Quest may be version 6. The current version on Garmin web site is version 7 (which is a year old). So as you get only one free upgrade from Garmin try to wait a bit for version 8 to come out before upgrading."

Cheers
