Not to be the whiner of the group, especially over a great product, such as,
the 480...BUT...this reminds me of another feature sorely lacking in this
box. It offers no VFR vertical guidance as the x96's have. IOW...it won't
tell you when to start a decent at X feet per minute to arrive at Y feet
above the airport elevation, Z miles from the final destination. I know
that this is not needed in an IFR situation, but geez didn't they think the
480 would be flown by general aviation VFR occasionally?

Gee, I've flown VFR for 25 years and never had to have a GPS tell me
when to descend. Besides it's pretty trivial. The box tells you
MINUTES to destination. For a 500 FPM descent just multiply the
the altitude you want to lose by 2 and start then.
