I was at S'nF and asked this question. The Garmin rep said, "Nope!
No new 596 in '07. "

He left it at that.

Here's my wish list for the 596:

Touch Screen
IAP's
Airways
MEA's
MAP's


That would be nice but considering that the G1000 and 430 don't have
these I'm not sure if they would be first released in a handheld.

Not a reason at all. To add those features to the G1000 and the 430 you have
to get them certified. To add them to a 596 you just have to tell the
software folks to do it.

There are lots of features on the 496 and even the 396 that aren't on the
430 and G1000.
