That said, I've never had a more unpleasant user experience with popular mobile electronics than I have with other people's Garmin stuff. Don't know if I could bring myself to buy anything of theirs, unless maybe I was building a plane in my garage (of course, I'm currently developing military MFD software myself, and would likely be picky there too).
