A buddy of mine has one, it is a very nice unit. He has had it for about three years now and has had no trouble with it. They only thing he dislikes, and I agree, is that the screen is to small to get really good detail when in side image view. He wishes he had saved up a little more money and bought a 898. Bass pro has the the 798 starting a 1000.00 and the 898 for 1500.00. If you can fork up the extra money or hold off long enough to set it back it would be well worth it. Just my .02

I have the 898 and love it! I would not want the screen any smaller though. I would recommend going with the 898 or one with a larger screen.

I have the 797 and I will tell you that you will be highly disappointed if you don't shop around and buy the 8", they offer allot more stuff for the larger units and the screen is so much easier to read!!!! Listen to experience... please

This might surprise you, but check out Amazon's pricing on the 'Birds. You might save some $$$.

The 798SI Combo w/internal GPS is currently selling there for $893.82 w/free shipping. The savings isn't quite as good with the 898....about $65 or so.

I found this one @ a great price with free shipping, and with a three year extended warranty still under 900 http://www.thedigitaloasis.com/Shop/...815/rid/135955 I'm still thinking, been all this time w/o a side finder, and the screen is small, and don't have the bucks for a 800 series, thanks for all your in put
