Im not exactly sure why, or even where i heard this (probably on here or a youtube video) but they said the 899 was a better choice. Sorry wish I had more info
Scrat, look back through some of the recent post's. Someone asked the same question and down in the answers Rickie posted a breakdown of the differences of the units. Then explained why one unit would be a better choice over the other.
Thanks cray and zippy I found the post.

I just ordered a 899si...after doing alot of research and even talked to hummingbird even they told me the 899 was a better buy. Has more features and things for the money. Yes it's being discontinued but like they said they will be supporting it for awhile. That's the reason I went that way...hope it helps you. I know rice did post on a post of mine giving the pros of each one
Check our my previous post hummingbird 800 series it might help some...
I had an 899 and loved it. Was like an extension of my body after a while I knew it so well. Recently upgraded to a helix 10 and as awesome as the new fish finder is I still find myself missing the 899.
The 899 would be closer compared in features to the HELIX 9 ...
