A single subscription costs around $530, according to Jepp. You need the
Skybound USB data writer for around $80.00 as well, since the older PCM
Skybound II will not work for the new, larger capacity cards.


They will pro rate an existing subscription toward the newer W version.


It looks like some of the other features as well should really add a lot of
capability to the box.


Is it also assumed that all the 430W boxes will have been updated for
terrain too or is there a matrix of 430 versions now?

The terrain comes from Garmin, a separate update for the second card.
Jeppesen provides only the flight data.
