Default Garmin 496 Training

And a bigger screen that can be displayed in portrait mode! Without
that, I'll never buy another Garmin.


You should be so lucky as to have a choice.

Garmin's competitors are a bunch of weenies.


Boy, isn't that the truth? Lowrance, with all of its nautical might,
has proven to be nothing but a bottom feeder (and I own and like a
2000c, BTW). And AvMap may as well go back to Italy, because they
clearly don't understand marketing in the US.

It's really a shame, cuz without competition Garmin can just keep
stuffing their over-priced dinky x96's down our throats, knowing that
they're the only weather game in town.
