I believe the 797 (and others) are user friendly. It just like using the up/down, left/right functions on your computer keyboard. Drop down menus just can't be beat.

Updates usually fix their (Humminbird) problems and our complaints.

Put your unit in the simulator mode and play with it. Helps with the learning curve.
