Hardware Differences? 4250 vs. 4050

RJGill84 · 01-02-2008, 7:58 AM

Hey there, I recently purchased a 4050 and I like it, but then realized that I could purchase a 4250 for only $50 @ Circuit City, or even $50 than what I paid for the 4050 if I were to purchase it online.

The key thing that I am wondering is: Is there a difference between the 4250 and 4050s key hardware? i.e. processor, etc.

The 4250 is a little bit lighter (enough to tell) and thinner too (front to back thickness). It also has about 15% more point-of-interest information then the 4050 does.

I guess it depends what you're using it for, but the 4250 does seem to be the 'refreshed' 4050 I guess.

Welcome aboard btw

Well, I meant more along the lines of hardware / software differences. i.e. does the 4250 have a better processor, different software, etc?
