I bought one back in March. I posted a pirep on it shortly
thereafter. You should be able to Google it up. I flew a long
x-country to Sedona / Grand Canyon and am still impressed with it. It
does not have the terrain warning features that the new Garmin has.
This was a replacement for my Airmap 100 and I liked it as well but
never had to seek service. Some members of the newsgroup haven't been
happy with Lowrance's service. There are better units out there but
for the money I still think it is a good deal and would buy it again.

Okay, there must be someone out there using the Lowrance Airmap
1000. What do
you think of it? Better yet if you can compare it to the Garmin
196. The
asswipes in sci.geo.sat-nav don't want to talk about it.

thanks,
