don't use it as much as before). The Garmin 12 is a barebones GPS, but
works flawlessly. It tells me everything I need to know. I am wondering

Faster display updates, especially when zooming. Storing more routes.
Being able to see a HSI or something equivalent and the map at the same
time. New toy.
