Have a look at the Lowrance Airmap 2000c, which has a bigger screen
than the Garmin but isn't quite as big as the Avmap - at a very
interesting price.


This 2000c is a very good unit.



I agree -- and, in fact, we bought one at OSH '05, to replace our old
Lowrance Airmap 300.

If portability is necessary -- and a cigarette lighter is unavailable -- go
with the 2000c. It's not quite an AvMap -- nothing else is -- but the 2000c
has batteries that last between 2 and 5 hours, if needed.


You can always hardwire it to the plane. I did that when I had Garmin
handhelds.
