Garmin Oregon 400t
The Garmin Oregon 400t is a cutting edge, rugged, waterproof handheld GPS to help you navigate your next outdoor adventure. At first glance you'll immediately notice that it has no buttons. That's because you have a fully functional, innovative touch screen. The touch screen is a large 3” diagonal and is viewable in any lighting condition, even direct sunlight. At the heart of the Garmin 400t is a high sensitivity GPS receiver for the ultimate in satellite reception and acquisition times. Hotfix technology will also help decrease acquisition times by prediction satellite location based on past positions. The internal electronic compass and barometric altimeter round out the advanced features that will help you safely return from your next hunting, hiking, or geocaching adventure.
Garmin’s Oregon series GPS units are aimed at the outdoor recreationalist and comes with a bevy of features. The 400T is the top end model in the series and as such is the most feature-packed of all the Oregon series models.
GPS receivers have come a long way in terms of design and functionality. The earliest GPS devices lacked the ability to display even the simplest of graphics, let alone utilize the slick, touch screen color display like the one featured on the 400T. The 400T features a smooth, rounded finish with a rubberized grip. The unit feels very solid has a bit more weight than what we’re used to in a handheld GPS unit.
The 3 inch LCD screen’s touch interface is responsive, although if you have big fingers, it may be a bit difficult to enter data. But don't worry, you'll get used to it.
Oregon 400t is also compatible with Garmin’s fitness accessories such as heart rate monitor and speed/cadence sensors for bicycles. The back of the 400T has a few slots which accommodate a handle bar mount and the supplied carabiner which clips easily to a backpack or belt loop.
The 400T can store lots of information so you only need to take the GPS receiver to your Geocaches. In addition, the 400T can also log which ones you found and which ones you didn’t for easier uploading and logging later. You can also write notes about your finds which can then be uploaded to the web later. The Geocaches are also stored separately from other waypoints making it easy to manage and sort through the different waypoints and Geocaches stored in the unit.
The 400T can also send and receive information wirelessly from one unit to another. This makes it fast and easy to share your Geocaches and waypoints with other Garmin users without the need to manually type in the information.
The Garmin Oregon series is among the first to have the Where I go application preloaded onto it. It is similar to Geocaching only it takes you to different locations in a game. So you head off on an adventure with different objectives to accomplish at each spot.
The 400T has all the other features that you would expect from a GPS unit such as trip computers, routes, and maps. It can store 50 routes, 1000 waypoints, and 20 saved tracks with 10,000 points. It also features a built-in picture viewer so you can load and share your favorite digital photos.
You can select different profiles for the 400T if you mainly use it for Geocaching, then you can have your Geocaching icons displayed on the main screen, and other icons related to Geocaching will also be displayed. If you select automotive, then the icons which relate to driving will be most prominently displayed. You can choose from recreational, Geocaching, automotive, marine, and fitness profiles. With each one, it also changes the background screen to an appropriate graphic.
The Garmin Oregon 400T is very friendly and easy-to-use GPS device. Outdoorsmen and Geocachers alike will like all the features found on the 400T. It ain't cheap, but it packs the most features you have ever seen in a compact, portable unit. If you have the means, you won’t be disappointed with your Garmin 400T. Try it now!
