    Default Newer model of livescope 2021??


    Do you think garmin will have a new model livescope in 2021? I am almost retired. Dont want to spend big money now especially if next yr they come out with a better, improved, easier model livescope. What do you think? In time I am sure it will eventually happen.

    If you want to sit around and wait for something that may or not happen go ahead. Of course they are going to come out with something new. Almost all new models have bugs in them to boot. If your going to be retired get what you can enjoy spend the money and go catch some fish! You might want to use this now: https://garmin.rebateaccess.com/promoti on.php?p=90264. JMHO

    This is just one old mans opinion and not worth anything except to me. The electronics world hasn’t stood still for 30-40 years now. And in today’s world they are working on new stuff by the time the latest product hits the market. So yes they or someone else is going to come out with something that is bigger and better than last years offering. ICast coming up shortly and we shall see what is latest. I’m kinda like this, if it is working as good as it is today why not wait until latest greatest comes out and then the gotta have guys start buying it and sell today’s stuff for penny’s on the dollar. And dealers will be offering discounts on new remaining inventory. If your planning on retiring my recommendation is the year before is when you start buying up stuff to set you up for retirement years. Don’t wait all the way to retirement for latest greatest and spend top dollar on it. Now I’m pretty conservative so makes sense to me. Also I have found as I have gotten older to harder and harder to fish as much as I would really like to. So get what you want earlier and enjoy it for as long as you can. Block out all the hype on the latest greatest toy of the day. Go fishing and enjoy it.

    I believe It is impossible to have the latest and greatest. Sure you can go to the store and buy the latest but by time you get it home its obsolete. It is amazing how fast electronics has advanced and continues. Just think, when Apollo went to the moon its computer had 2 or 3 kilobytes of memory and I believe I read it weighed 70 lbs. Your iphone or pc has millions times more than that. Is it due to reverse engineering? Should we say "Thank you Roswell"?

    The computer age knows no boundary . What is great today will be history five years from now . Remember when the first side image came out ? Figure 360 will be on base models in 2025 . we shall see , I hope .

    Who knows Your iphone may have 360 sonar app that will find the type specie fish your looking for then tell your trolling motor to setup over the fish.
    Be safe and good luck fishing
