Garmin is coming out with a new GPS receiver that has a 10Hz per second refreshment rate. Is this better than HB & Lowrance?

It's faster than either currently updates.
I like. The one I read about was about 5000. Must be priced in pesos...ha
Tom, this one is more in my price range. I have always liked Garmin electronics.Quote:
