Just my opinion but I have bought both and here is what I found. Do not buy the bundle. Buy the unit and add the navoincs card. You get more HD maps that way.
Yep Arkabutla on the HD list and I guarantee you will be happy with the map.

I've got the '08 Hot Maps premium card. The Arkabutla map on my card does not seem to show much detail. The old river channel is not marked but you can visualize where it is out from Kelly's crossing and on down towards the dam by looking at the depth changes. It has decent detail on the main lake from Hernando point to the dam and over by Dub Patton but it don't show much in the creeks or up towards the duck hole.

definately skip the package. Lake maps loaded are 2-3 years old and are not real good.

Navionics has a hd map of butla in the 09 premium. I think the card runs 150-199.

See, their website lists Arkabutla twice on the 08 card. One in regular text and one in bold red text indicating it is an hd map. My card only has one butla map on it and it don't seem very high deff. I might be tempted to upgrade to the 09 if i were sure it had a better map but you really cant tell by looking at their website.

FF, If you want to skip the NVB deal, Wal-Mart has a pretty good price on the 788. May dad has one and it is a good unit. I have the 797 with external GPS but really like the internal one.

Walmart.com: Sports & Fitness: Fishing & Boating: Fishing

Definitely want an internal antennae. pretty sure I'm gonna go with the 788ci for the front of the boat and link it to a 997si later down the road. J&H products.com is about $30 cheaper than wal-mart.
