They already had those in the MX20, which I think is being sold by Garmin now.

The GMX200. Nice unit, slightly larger screen and faster processor
than the MX20 they built it from.

From a software standpoint, there are probably lots of little
features that can be improved, but I cannot think of any big
features that the 496 lacks...

Airways. Until they put airways in the GPS systems they will still be
just help tools. This is the same with the G1000. I still have to
carry all my charts and reference them often in flight.

Cessna also has it in the G1000 in the Mustang.

The G1000 had ChartView (coming "soon" to some installations) whcih has the
LOW-ENROUTE charts.

'Scuse me, JeppView.

AAUI, JeppView contains only SID/STAR, airport, and approach charts,
not enroute. At least that's all that was available in the 2007 182T
I just flew.

Garmin will announce automatic, seamless updating of databases via
satellite radio.

Is that guess or a dream?

After I posted a similar question a little while back, someone suggested the
following link. Think 3-D terrain awareness.

https://buy.garmin.com/shop/shop.do?cID=148&pID=9157

The more I think about it, the more it seems logical. A constant forward
view driven by the GPS-derived altitude would still provide a level of
terrain awareness without the need to develop/incorporate an AHRS.

My pattern has been to jump 2 model series or when there is a
significant change. I have a 396 in the Bonanza that has earned it's
keep with the XM weather incorporation. This year I upgraded my audio
panel to utilize the audio input.

Speculation?

Bob

How long has it been now since Garmin promised support for Mac's, three
years?
I don't believe Garmin-rumors until the product is in the vendor's hands.

I don't think anyone here is claiming first, second, or even third-hand
knowledge of the new (if any) Garmin portable. It's all just fun
speculation.

Besides, as a Mac-user, you should be used to the lack of third-party
software support
