Got some interesting info from a West Marine buyer today re: Garmin in 2006. Look for a smaller (18") radar radome offering and some major wireless (Bluetooth) bells and whistles. Apparently a handheld unit will be offered which will repeat the display seen at the helm.

Gonna be an interesting first quarter. :lol:
 
This is interesting news because I've been trying to decide between a Garmin and a Raymarine setup. The Garmin setup looks a bit better to me in terms of the screen clarity and chart details on the maps but the radar dome looks bigger than my boat.

Raymarine has everything I want including an autopilot but their GPS and the quality of their maps don't see quite as nice as the Garmin.

I guess I'll have to wait and see what Garmin does this year.
