How long before Garmin comes out with a bigger-screen model, or someone else
makes a unit that will do what the 396 does? How many trips will you make
without this amazing tool while you're waiting? You can always trade up
later. It's easy to predict that there will be strong demand for used 396's.
Good points. Jay, I'd suggest perhaps taking the next step and go
flying with one on a storm day. The value of acting without waiting may
tip the cost/benefit ratio for you.
YMMV of course.

My 396 should arrive today, which will completely blow the afternoon as far
as any productivity goes.
You and me both :-)
