Has anyone tried the vistanav software (www.vistanav.com)? Reading
their website and reading through the operating manual, it appears that
it does everything the 396 does, and then much much much more. With
the wx package i believe its just shy of 5 amu but certainly adds a lot
more features such as Highway in the Sky, Chart view type software, 2D
and 3D views, and also very handy (for someone like me who needs to get
at their email) the LS800 computer can be taken from the cockpit and
used in the hotel or wherever you're staying as a real full functioning
computer with builting 802.11. The GPS and WX units connect to this
wirelessly (bluetooth) so you can stick those devices under your seat
or in the back. The screen measures 8x5 (roughly) on this computer too
compared to the small Garmin screen.

I have a Garmin now, however once the vistanav contains Canadian
information (they told me 6 - 9 month) i'm getting in line.
