Archives: 1997
Join us and re-live our past as we share with you some of our previous history from our archives of our early years. When you consider how the GPS industry and its products have evolved over the last decade, especially at the consumer level, the changes have been nothing short of phenomenal!
Read along with some of these archives and you will see how the products have evolved, adding new capabilities and functionality all the while maintaining or reducing the cost to you, the end user. You will also see the historical nature of the constant struggle between the release of new products and meeting announced delivery dates. It really is a struggle, and no-one has yet to master it!
The following information is from our actual 'What's New?' webpages back in 1997, our 3rd year in the business, and is presented here for your enjoyment and to re-live a bit of history with us!
