GPS Color vs. B&W
I wanted to get a fixed mount GPS and it seems that the color versions are about twice the price. The functions on Garmins and Lowrance seem about the same except for the B&W vs. color. Are people finding that the color are easier to read while underway? Did anyone buy one and then switch - if so why?

This is a topic I've been thinking hard about too. I will be pulling the trigger on a new GPS in the next couple of weeks. Haven't made up my mind on which one to get either. My budget is no more than $600, so I don't know if this is attainable or not.

Here is the one I'm leaning toward. Keep in mind I have NO clue what to look for. Does anyone see something in this unit that I should look out for? Can I use it for both land and water? I'm really clueless on this subject.
I would really like to be able to use it for the boat and truck if possible.

I currently run the Garmin 2006c. It is fantastic. The capabilities are amazing and I have been over 1000 miles and it has done a wonderful job. I wish I had the room for the 2010c. I highly recommend it.
