Has anyone noticed the trend in lower costs for electronic cartography.
Garmin is selling a chartplotter with full US coastal Bluechart cartography
for about $900. Some vendors charge more than double that for software only
to buy full US coverage.

Also Maptech is providing a CD as part of their paper Chartkit product.

So, are we seeing a fundamental change in the market for electronic
cartography? It is about time.
