GPSr Units / Oregon 450 vs. 450t
May 01, 2010, 08:57:19 AM
Hello, I'm new to this forum and to handheld GPS for hiking. If the only difference between the Oregon 450 and the 450t is the 100k U.S. topomap, why wouldn't I just get the Oregon 450 and buy the topomap separately? The Garmin U.S. 100k topomap is available for $76 at Amazon. Is there anything I should be aware of as far as the differences between the two GPS units goes?

How do the maps available here for free compare to the commercially available maps in case I decide to buy the Oregon 450 and not bother buying Garmin's topomap?
