So I am looking at the Lowrance Airmap 1000 as a portable alternative, but
for the life of me, can't find a single negative comment about it. Does
anyone have a good reason *not* to buy one?

It's black and white?

Their model 2000c is a really, really nice color unit, for not a lot of
AMUs. IMHO, it's worth the extra buckos.
