Matt, We also have a touch screen unit at my work and I love it in that environment. Fast and easy to use.

I think for a fisherman, we would destroy it pretty quickly. I saw the me Garmin units at the Boston Boat Show and the rep I spoke with conceded that these are ideal for a guy with is family in a SeaRay going to Nantucket, but for someone who is fishing on deck and running the boat, maybe not so ideal. They sure look slick as hell.

I was truly impressed with the new Furuno NavNet 8 and 12 inch plotters. Not the 3D part so much, but the screen was crisp, the controls are easy to read and manipulate, I think that they are a heck of a unit.
