Does anyone know of a place I can rent a Garmin 396?

This is an interesting idea that could easily work with the inexpensive,
dependable 1-2 shipping now available.

The only catch I could think of is the XM service. At least for XM
music services, the typically quoted service rates are for "personal"
use, not for bars, retail stores, salons, etc... I've never seen an XM
WX service contract, so I don't know if renting the served unit is legal.

I'd rent one simply for a demo experience!
