I don't know how their relative sales volumes were, what the ROI was, etc...
But I do know what I like and increasingly I am/was looking at the UPS line
for when I have to stuff the panel on my my RV-7 in 18 months - the CNX-80
had really caught my fancy as the #1 nav/com/vor/gps/ils box with a backup
com and a Garmin 196 for nav backup...... I do think their price on the
SL-30 / SL-40 was excessive compared to the Garmin stuff...
We will never know because uniform pricing will set in very rapidly under
single corporate ownership...

I'd expect prices to soon go thru the roof, now that they have the
monopoly over the aviation GPS market.
