Hi,

Has anyone heard of a release date for the Triton GPSs in Australia?

Thanks

They say 'Early 2008'

I have just spoken to the Australian importer for Magellan and they think that it will be available in the next couple of weeks. They are making their way through customs as we speak. There have been issues in the US with some models coming out with old versions of firmware and missing cables and CDs.

They look cool, I can't want to get my hands on one.

Do I get to have a play with one?

They are going to be pretty pricey. Around $1100 and that is without a maps bundle, so I may wait a little while. I really want to see how they fair in the US and make sure they get over the initial teething problems. It is a little scarey when a company like Magellan is shipping units with the incorrect firmware.

Quality control may have been having their afternoon nap
