Jay, if you're still on, lurking or maybe someone can forward it to you:
Here's your new GPS. Looks like the Garmin boys have been listening to all
us whiners.

I got my Victor Airways feature (yeah,... I fly the East Coast so I still
need that if I want to play with ATC while VFR).
Your biggest problem will be selling your other units. Do I hear 10 cents on
the dollar?

I guess nobody will want my EKP-IV now.

Alright. Talk. Don't make me reach over there and pull your still-pumping
heart out from the gaping hole you used to call a chest whilst breaking
your sternum and playing air guitar with your ribcage. -- Tai

It wasn't clear from the video that it has a full Victor Airways
feature. It looks to me like it can display victor airways, but can it
compute routes using victor airways like the 480 can? It doesn't look
like it to me.

My panel mounted 496 won't be going anywhere soon.
