"WAAS Upgradable" was a very prominent part of their advertising. If they
choose not to offer an upgrade, it becomes "non" WAAS upgradable. I imagine this was part of the decision process for many (if not most) folks who puchased the 430 or 530. I'm not a lawyer nor do I play one on TV but at the very least a whole bunch of people would demand their money back or some return compensation for having to switch to another box for WAAS. While not technically a lawsuit, it will still hit them in the same spot--their bank account. On a side note, I don't know about what you've seen, but just because it's nonesense, it doesn't mean it's lawsuit-proof. Marco Leon "Scott Moore" wrote in message ... Sue them because they woundn't upgrade their product ? Nonsense. They never garanteed they would support every new feature that comes out. I own a 430, I would not participate. Its utter nonsense. |

Yea, they advertised WAAS upgradability when I bought mine. I assumed it was hype. I was right ! What do I win ? |

WAAS upgrade does not mean you gain the improved approach capability.
Garmin 196/296s have WAAS but they are a handheld. "Marco Leon" mmleon(at)yahoo.com wrote in message ... "WAAS Upgradable" was a very prominent part of their advertising.
