[QUOTE="Nussy, post: 172566, member: 2148"] After looking for about 6 months, I just picked up the Humminbird 798ci Side Imaging for $699 at Cabelas. I figured it was a no-brainer because it was the same price as the HDS-5 but had the side imaging and downscan technology. Looks like they have a new model coming in 2011(called 798ci HD) so I'm guessing that's why they were discounted so much. You might be able to find a model like this for a similar price range. I know Fleet Farm up here had them for $800(regular $1049). Since it's winter up here I set it up portable for ice fishing until spring. I haven't had it on the water but it seams much more user friendly than the Eagle 320 I had previously. Also, the 2011 Lowrance Elite units have downscan added to them for 2011. [/QUOTE]
