Well, after much debate... I finally found a deal I couldn't resist.
On the LD Riders mailing list there was a post about a "hardly used" SPIII Deluxe with all the original stuff with it for $500, shipping included.
Turns out "barely used" was it being used only in preparation for and participation in the 2003 Iron Butt Rally, by Rick Williams (4 time IBR participant). He got it last xmas, used it through the rally, and hasn't used it since.
So, I finally upgraded to the SPIII from my GPS V!
Now I just gotta figure out how I am going to mount it. Not sure if I'll get another VP dash mount. I liked that location for my GPS V, so it should work for my SPIII, since it is bigger & in color.
I was VERY tempted to spend the extra $250 and get the 2610. But that is $250 that I can put towards my fuel cell... so it is a good compromise!
The really bad part is I gotta wait until I get home in MARCH to play with it :?
