New ONIX 400 GPS Receives Best of What's New 2007 Award From Editors At Popular Science Magazine

Overland Park, KS - The editors at Popular Science magazine have recognized the Bushnell
ONIX 400 GPS as one of the best new products in the recreation category of its Best of What's New 2007 innovation awards. The ONIX 400 was one of several hundred products that were evaluated this year. The ONIX 400 is the first handheld GPS to offer the XM NavWeather that integrates real time weather information with GPS maps and navigation data.

The Popular Science editors noted that while "a drizzle annoys hikers; a storm can kill them." The ONIX 400 provides a greater margin for safety by utilizing XM Satellite broadcasts to access live weather feeds. A hiker or camper can monitor weather developments, including
animated Doppler radar to see severe storm tracks in real time. Users can access the live weather feeds by subscribing to a special XM Satellite Radio Weather package.

The ONIX 400 has an ergonomic design that is lightweight, rugged and waterproof. It is
powered by a rechargeable Li-Ion battery, and an embedded 128 MB micro SD card provides
plenty of memory for weather data, maps, photos and saved locations and trails.
