Garmin’s already firmly entrenched in the GPS for outdoorspeople game with its Oregon line of handhelds, and now the company’s announced a new series, the Dakotas. Two models — the 10 and 20, respectively — have been launched, and are, overall, a bump up from the Oregon line. These poor boys supposedly have a 20 hour battery charge life, a 2.6-inch LCD (diagonally), and store up to 200 tracks. The higher-end Dakota 20 boasts a MicroSD slot, an electronic compass, a barometric altimeter, and wireless info transfer amidst compatible units. They’re expected in the 3rd quarter and will run you $299.99 for the Dakota 10 and $349.99 for the 20. Full press release after the break.
