Is that true for the GNS430 WAAS unit, too?

I haven't flown or taught in a plane with the WAAS upgrade yet. I
thougth I heard that the procedure holds would auto sequence as part
of the WAAS certification (one of the reasons Garmin bought the 480).
I'm teaching in a G1000 right now and waiting for the WAAS to become
available. The G1000 is almost the same as the 430 right now (the only
real difference is that the G1000 automatically resumes the approach
after the procedure turn, the 430 requires you to unpress the suspend
button).
