I might even buy a 496 when they start showing up used on Ebay for
$950. In the meantime I'll just have to stick it out with my 196
(that I bought used on Ebay).

That will be a while, that's about what a used 296 (in good cond with
accesories) brings.

So be it. The 296 is too slow.. we have 'em in the 182's we use for fire
patrol and my 196 is way faster.

Too slow...? I've never had any trouble with mine? What do you mean?

My mistake, I re-read your first post... I was referring to the 295.

No problem. My 296 is the first handheld GPS I have ever owned, so nothing
to compare it to. Does what I need!
