Hands on with the DeLorme Earthmate PN-40
UPDATE: Two newer models have now been introduced, the DeLorme PN-60 and the DeLorme PN-60w.
The DeLorme Earthmate PN-40 updates the PN-20, which was already one of the most innovative GPS receivers out there. Quite simply, the PN-40 rocks, adding the following new features:
- A dual-core processor makes map redraws and menu navigation very fast, correcting the biggest flaw in the PN-20
- Tri-axial electronic compass (meaning there is no need to hold it dead level)
- Barometric altimeter
- SDHC high-capacity SD card support
- A more detailed base map
