I think I've seen the Charge Complete icon you describe. It's a big
(blue?) representation of a battery, isn't it?

golleeeee, has anyone read their manual? Not being sarcastic, just
amazed... Yes, the 296 is a big step up from the 295 and has some
really nice bells-n-whistles... Not sure the 396 has anything to offer
me, though...

Isn't the 396 going to have the ability to couple to XM satellite
weather? Now that would be nice.

The XM subscription is $50/month though. Not worth it for me.
