Bill how low can you dim it at night?
Is it dim enough that it doesn't illuminate the cockpit?
Or, is it dim enough that you can just read it?

I bought an AirMap 1000 and for the first day or so was also underwhelmed.
But after reading through the manual and a 1300 mile round trip to
Oshkosh and back I've changed my mind.
The large screen and large engineer type butons certainly make it easy
to use in bright sunlight and turbulence.
It has three basic screens - one of which is the satelite display -
rarely used.
The other two are the HSI screen and Map Screen - each of these has sub
screens that work well and are intuitive to use once you understand the
layout.
Price was right and screen size means a lot when your eyes get older.
