Default Garmin 496 Training

I was thinking of upgrading my 396 to the 496 and bought VFlite's
Interactive Guide to see the new features in action. It was very helpful,
but I just don't think there are enough new features (taxi guidance, AOPA
database, etc.) to justify the price tag.

I am offering the course on eBay at: http://tinyurl.com/vfruy

for 9 dollars if anyone else is interested.

I hope the 596 has a touch screen, full IFR approaches, MEA's and approach
altitudes. Then I'll trade up instantly.

Not very likely. Since none of those items can be used in a handheld
GPS ( legally, discounting touch screen ) why would Garmin put them in?
