Garmin Etrex 10, 20 & 30 line of GPS handhelds have been updated. The refresh, announced this morning, will bring three new models to the eTrex family during the third quarter of this year. First up is the eTrex 10 — a basic, little guy that carries a global database of locations, as well as a monochrome display that can be read under the sun. The eTrex 20, on the other hand, displays images in 65k color on a 2.2-inch screen and can support topographic, roadway and marine maps. At the high end of the spectrum is the eTrex 30 which offers all the features you’ll find on the eTrex 20, plus a tilt-compensated electronic compass, barometric altimeter and wireless data transfer capabilities. All three models allow users to download geocached information directly to their devices and boast a lengthy 25-hour battery life — giving you plenty of time to find your bearings before calling in the rescue squad.
