I have a Fujitsu ST with their daylight-readable screen. It remains viewable
in sunlight. The other, non-daylight screens that I have tried were very
hard to see in sunlight.
The only problem with the ST4121 is size. It may be too big of a display for
some cockpits.

If WxWorx can get Garmin "onboard" (and you would think that they could,
since WxWorx is planned for the 1000 series)then they may be able to give us
multiple GPS outputs. The current problem is that computer looks for GPS
data as com port and locks up the com port for a given device. If 430/530
could have multiple "taps" to give signal, then each of these could work on
different com port and be used for WxWorx, JeppView, etc.
