May I be the first* to alert the collective to the new Garmin Montana 700?
For those of us that venture off tarmac, this looks like it could be the first viable alternative to the long in the tooth Montana 6xx series, as (unlike the XT) it looks to have capability to run the OS style Topo maps.
Also, optionally, it combines the features of the very useful Garmin in reach satellite messaging products, has what looks to be the nice screen from the feature rich but slow 276cx.
If it has the Montana 6xx profiles feature as well it could be a winner.
*unless someone beat me to it and my search was crap
