90 Knots is fast enough for me since I'm going to use it for mapping 4x4
trails. So, getting back to the subject, where's the best place (ie:
cheapest) place to buy a Garmin 45? I'm particularly interested in US or
Canadian stores.

BTW, the lowest price I've seen mentioned is $279USD but the article (a web
page) didn't mention the source.

The inexpensive navigation receivers, including the Garmin 45, shuold be
available from most marine electronics dealers - if your're near Vancouver, BC,
try Roton Industries on Granville Island, or Steveston Hardware, in Steveston,
or at 2nd and Pine, Vancouver.

US marine mailorder places like West Marine (800-538-0775), Boat/US, etc. also
sell them.
