GPS manufacturer Garmin has announced a small, $23 device that act as a beacon, broadcasting a wireless signal to compatible devices that they are near a Geocache or give them clues along the way. It will also count the number of visitors to the cache and transmit coordinates to the next waypoint or the cache. Compatible models are the Garmin Dakota, and Garmin Oregon and recently announced GPSMAP handhelds. [Source: Garmin. Image: Garmin]

I introduced this ruggedized field tablet PC by Trimble here back in March, but there wasn’t any pricing information available at that time. To refresh, it has a military grade ruggedized design to keep out dirt and water, 32GB solid state drive (no moving parts), built in GPS, Wi-Fi, bluetooth 2.0, 2 integrated digital cameras with geotagging functionality (why 2?), Windows Vista Business, and a 7″ sunlight readable screen all in a 2.6-lb package.
