So if money and panel space were not an issue, it would be a no-brainer. If I do a 750 I have to go with the remote audio panel because of the panel space it consumes, which is $1000 more than a panel mounted audio. If I go with the 650, the entire project ends up costing about $6000 less and it frees up panel space.

The big question is....is the larger viewing area and integrated audio worth $6000? In the real world, do you find yourself accessing charts and plates on the 750 or do you use the iPad for that? I would think it would be more convenient to use the iPad for charts and plates and just set up the GPS to do it's thing.

I can see some benefit to the large screen when using geo-referenced plates. The 560 screen is a bit small to be using in a moving map capacity.

What do you all think? Did you buy one or the other and wish you hadn't?

Thanks
