Goodbye to Garmin's Weather Monopoly

Garmin has never had a monopoly on the weather. AnywhereMap has had it on their solution for years. True enough. But as far as an all-in-one box, Garmin was it. No more. (Although that AvMap website is a real mystery...) Do we KNOW that the AvMap is going to be all-in-one?

Most likely not, since XM weather is an add-on feature to the Avmap. I'm certain that an external receiver/antenna is required just like the XM addon to anywhere map. Presuming that AvMap combines the external receiver & antenna into one unit, this seems to differ little from the 496's hockey-puck antenna. -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination"

It could and might very well be a hockey-puck and a box in addition to the AvMap unit.
