Airmap 100 Obsolete. Need recent database

Rats. I just called LEI Extras to buy a database update for our
Lowrance Airmap 100. They said they no longer offer GPS updates for that
unit. Database has gotten too big.

They offer a rebate on newer units if you turn your old one in -

$100 off the Airmap 500
$175 off the Airmap 1000
$225 off the Airmap 2000

(Anyone gotten a better offer?)

No thanks. I'll wait for Garmin to put Bluetooth in the 3600a. (And
maybe bring the screen up to 256 colors.)

The gal said Lowrance stopped offering the update about 3 months ago.

If anyone has a recent database (like Fall '04 or later) and has sent or
is sending their old 100 in for rebate (so won't be using the database),
I'd sure like to have the database update.

Please contact me at

Mike,

Any news? I just bought one of these used (about 2 months ago) and
hadn't got around to updating. I'd really like to get the latest
database that fits. I'm a student and will be only using it for VFR for
a few years anyway.

I have an original Airmap. The last data cartridge I bought was about a
year ago. After reading your message, I went to the Lowrance site. They
evidently no longer sell the data base updates for the Airmap or the -100 or
the -300.
