Bizer is a better deal in my opinion.
Garmin used to have a 10 Winni only version... I wonder if they will update and still offer that. I certainly don't need 17000 lakes in my GPS!

Default Looking for a review

Has anyone tried out the new Garmin maps. The $150 version of the map can be had for $50, pre-installed on a new GPS unit. The $200 version cannot - so you have to pay full price. However, the promise of being able to see shaded topography of the bottom may be worth shelling out the extra money.

I'm ogling over the Garmin EchoMap 50DV - which has their new DownVu sonar technology, in addition to supporting the new GPS maps. The marketing pictures make it seem that you can identify the leaves on under-water weeds, which for a milfoil seeker like me, is perfect. However, I'd rather not spend $549+ until I see it in action.

Nope the old $10 version is gone. Have to pay for all that survey time and equipment and buy the new version.
