I'd buy the Terrova just for the way it deploys. The V2 can be a real pain to get loose. I'm prolly not as skilled as other folks but I frequently find myself with 2 rods in hand and needing to change speed or direction, the pedal has saved quite a few rods from dock collisions.

As far as the standard or the Link, I think Johnson outdoors has under developed the Link. From looking at the controls a couple of the guys on here have designed the Link is lacking a lot of features which could easily have been added. HB(or most other) GPS units output enough information to make a nearly hands free unit which could work with most major brand GPS units wirelessly and it could easily work via the standard copilot unit. I'm sure a lot of it is business plan and not technical issues, but my guess is that within 2-3 years there will be a much more robust unit on the market.
