I wouldn't buy stock in a marine electronics company that wasn't changing it's tech to tablets.
In Response To: I use my Ipad in a plastic case, and it works pretty well ()
When all the present dedicated marine electronics become obsolete or broken, I can't see the masses running out to buy more dedicated clunky gizmos with massive new wiring to run and at a higher cost when they have an option for wireless navigation equipment at a lower cost. I'd bet the new wireless tech will evolve quickly and so will better tablets for boats. Maybe a waterproof case with a blue tooth waterproof keyboard or something?
