Thanks Jimmy for the feedback. I leaning towards the 9" screen which I can afford since I had a really good season in FANTASY FOOTBALL this year.

The new ECHOMAP units are HD & have the DAYLIGHT ANTI-GLARE screen. They also have a software program which creates a map as you fish with 1' contours, as well pre-loaded with 17,000 LAKES already which is great but when you fish a handful of lakes it is just window dressing.

The bummer is that GARMIN has not released them yet so I cannot go play with them @ a store yet. Will have to go to EXPO @ ROCKLAND & kick the tires, bring a wad of cash & beat the GARMIN guy up for a good price.
