Is it just me ... or has Garmin blog lost its focus?

Long ago I subscribed to the Garmin blog from the Garmin website to be emailed each new Garmin blog ... to keep up with Garmin GPS news ... You know, new products, services, vehicles, etc.

But lately, it seems like every Garmin Blog post is about Team Garmin racing bicycles.

I mean, come on, I subscribed to the Blog to read about GPS's .... not a bunch of cyclists.

Maybe if the blog wrote about a cross country car race using GPS as the sole routing tool ... yeah, that I would read.

But there's way, way too much news about cycling ... of course, that's just my opinion.

Here's a link to the latest blog:

Garmin blog joke

Yep, the Garmin blog is a joke. I can tell you what it would have stated if the Marketing dept didn't put a gag order on it.

Let's release a bunch of buggy firmware updates, then gradually fix them so it looks like we're innovating -thanks Microsoft. Let's release lots of confusing models with minor differences in features - thanks Canon.
