So under $450 for a 10" waterproof gps/sounder combo that can displayed on multiple screens (others in the boat with wifi phones)... and could probably get tablet and case cheaper from deal extreme etc with a bit more looking.. what am i missing?

I don't think my android tablet can do a split screen or can it?

iPhone/pad can now,
"SonarPhone update for Navionics apps on Android will be released at a later date."

cant see see a date anywhere yet...

Has anyone bought and tested one of these? How do they compare to other setups?
