they finally added GPS to the connext screen. Doesn't look like we can upgrade our current model though.

I'd like to know if the screen can be used to display NMEA networked info. Though it finally has GPS / Chartplotting capability (YES!), I haven't seen anything about sonar display (viewfinder, bottom contour plotting, temperature plotting, etc.) Also, the video only showed a small portion of that big, beautiful screen displaying the chart. It would be nice to know if more screen real estate can be used for chartplotting.

From all currently available info; however, this new generation Connext is a big step forward for Yamaha.
