I mostly wanted a GPS for outdoor activities with the occasional road
trip by vehicle also.
The 3-5 minute window to map a route is not a big deal on a long road
trip.
Picked up an Explorist 500LE today for $199 plus tax $227 Canadian
total.
Deal or NO DEAL?

You can import the data from the map, or you can get the coordinates
from another source (like a geocaching site), or you can select from
places you have been, and saved the routes. Obviously, the most
accurate will be the places you have been, and 'marked'. Using the
coordinate data from MS S&T, I was able to get within about 50 yards of
the correct house over a 155 mile route. I can live with that.

I believe when I bought the 400, the 500 was $350 (USD).

No deal .. I picked up the 500 (non LE model) for the same price from
Wal-Mart .. complete with batt and charger. The LE model as sold by Crappy
Tire only has the adaptor for 3 AAA batts.
