You got to be kidding ? !
 
I just read the AOPA article "Electronic flight displays and the courts" in the June, 2011 issue on page 34.
A Lancair 235 flew into a Cessna 172 in VFR conditions over Ohio at about 2400 ft.
Lawyers tried to sue Garmin because their flight display caused a "distraction" that resulted in the mid-air.
Yes, it was dismissed . . . thankyou !
