Just in time for the holidays, there’s a new $50 rebate (PDF) available for the SPOT Connect. This offer is good through December 31, 2011, and is for US residents only. As always, follow the link to the rebate and read the fine point.

From GPS Tracklog’s SPOT Connect review:

The SPOT Connect allows you to communicate with loved ones and social media, or call out search and rescue, even from remote wilderness areas without a cell phone signal. Like the DeLorme PN-60w + SPOT Communicator, the Connect allows you to compose messages on the fly, but instead of the DeLorme you can use your smartphone for this task, by downloading the free SPOT Connect Android or iPhone app.

A few favorite sources for the SPOT Connect:

• Amazon (about $13 cheaper than the next two as of post time)
• SPOT Connect Satellite Communicator
• GPS City

Tiger Direct has the TomTom XL 325S on sale for $49.99 after a $50 mail in rebate. There’s no formal expiration date, so we don’t know how long the deal will last. If you see that it’s gone, please drop a comment below.

Here’s a snippet from GPS Tracklog’s TomTom XL 325S review:

The TomTom XL 325S is an entry level 4.3” wide-screen device in the TomTom line up. It includes preloaded maps of the entire United States along with text-to-speech, so you’ll hear “turn right, Oak Street,” instead of just “turn right.”

REI has the DeLorme Earthmate PN-60 GPS for $249.95 after a $50 mail in rebate (PDF link). And since it’s not a sale item, it’s eligible for the 10% annual dividend for REI members, bringing it down to under $220. That’s a whopping good deal!
Here’s a snippet from GPS Tracklog’s DeLorme Earthmate PN-60 review:

The DeLorme Earthmate PN-60 updates the PN-40 with improved battery life, expanded internal memory, and activities (similar to Garmin’s profiles). Power management is one of the biggest improvements, as short battery life was a common complaint with the PN-40.
