It appears that retailers have leaked Garmin's upcoming GPS line. Amazon had listed relatively blank pages of the new 200, 300, 400c, 400i and 400t while Buy.com got even more specific with complete details on the Garmin Oregon 200 ($450) and Garmin Oregon 400C ($600). Apparently the Oregon is very similar to Garmin's Colorado (pictured here). The 3-inch, 240x400 pixel screen seems identical with the most noticeable upgrades coming in form factor—as GPSTracklog points out, the Oregon is one inch shorter and half an ounce lighter than the Colorado. For the Garmin fans in the audience, here are the full specs on each model:
