Greets!

Been waiting for this to happen....now you can get a GPS with XM Radio AND WX radar overlay.

Now I just have to work 10,000 hours of overtime to be able to afford it :rolleyes:

Hoping that in next couple years price drops to a more reasonable level, usually does for this kind of thing.

You can get the music too:

"The GPSMAP 396 is also capable of receiving XM Satellite Radio’s 130-plus channels of music, sports, news, talk, and entertainment programming through a subscription."

Looks like the WX service from XM is $99/month :eek:

Yep, Garmin charges a fortune for the Aviation models. The 296 is just a 276 with Aviation features added and double the list price. Now they add WX radar and tack on another grand to the list.

You need to wait for the quad mode GPS with space features.
