[QUOTE="RossKean, post: 1456100, member: 19880"] Yep. Although this isn't the first time Garmin has done a discount on the XT - I was expecting this a year ago when they had a special price offer. The new one has a larger screen and apparently some software changes to make routing easier. I would love to see them roll back the software upgrades to the original XT but that doesn't fit with Garmin's policy of planned obsolescence. (I suspect there is enough memory and processor capacity to handle it). The new one apparently has a different mount. I always thought the old mount was pretty flimsy although I have never had the unit fall off. If the new mount is compatible with the old XT (and is an improvement), I would get one. (I am planning to buy an extra mount anyway for another bike.) [/QUOTE]
