I'm using the Garmin 545S and don't have anything bad to say about it except it doesn't differentiate between fish and hungry fish...

Given the diversity of the human species, there is no “normal” human genome sequence. We are all mutants.

Things done at the last possible minute are done with the greatest possible information. Procrastination is, therefore, the most efficient means of doing things.

Looked at the Garmin 740 and while it's more than I wanted to spend, it definately has what I'm looking for. The only concern I'd have is how the touch screen would hold up after repeated use, has anyone hand any experience with the touch screens over a few seasons?

Space is definately going to dictate a combo, so in comparison to the Garmin 740 are there other similar units out there and where can you actually see one? Seems like that Garmin 740 was the only combo at West Marine with a screen size I'm looking for, suited for old man eyes.
