Default Opinion on the lowrance airmap 500

Hello,

I'm planning on purchasing a GPS for my VFR flights.

I have been doing a little bit of research and I think that this newsgroup
may bring me some help.

I'm not planning on spending more than $700 and of course would like to get
the best product for my money.
I'm still a student pilot ( flying in the US ) and I'm not really planning
on getting my instrument rating any time soon ( maybe next year ).

So far the "lawrance airmap 500 GPS" seems to be a good choice specially
with all the options that come with it ( mounting yoke, cig lighter etc
.... ) and price ( $500 ).


Anybody has any other suggestion ? Any personal review about the airmap 500
?


Thanks in advance for your help .
