Default Garmin 480 versus 530

Our club is examining the question of putting one of these on one or two
of our planes. I'm a big fan of the 480 based on what I've read, but the
A&P who does all our work has disparaging things to say about them and
really pushes the 430/530 based on reliability and also about how much
easier the user interface is to learn and remember. Does anybody have any
similar experiences?
