There is a Version 3.0 of the firmware in progress for the 480, Garmin
AT is and will continue development and support for the 480.


Do you know what changes the 3.0 software will have?


The 430/530 ARE NOT FAA certified for PRIMARY ENROUTE navigation. The
480 is.


Is that true even with the WAAS upgrade? I thought the thing that made the
480 primary en-route-capable was the WAAS?
