Goodbye to Garmin's Weather Monopoly

The total lack of info from Avmap and Garmin would lead me to believe that this is just a vaporware announcement. I wouldn't get too excited until they start putting some hardware and software out. John Galban=====N4BQ (PA28-180) Is it safe to assume you meant to write XM where you wrote Garmin? |

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. |
