The King displays are at half the resolution of a VGA screen and show only
eight colors. Special use airspace is depicted in the same color as your
route. I have *frequently* found this to be a serious problem.

The MX-20 is bigger, full VGA, and shows 256 colors. You can get options to
have it depict Jeppview approach plates and superimpose your aircraft right
on them. It has many more features than the King displays and is much easier
to use for monitoring terrain and course.

This display gives you a lot more bang for the buck than the Garmin 430/530,
being bigger and clearer without forcing you to replace your GPS or radios.
