    One little video with not allot to see and people are bashing HB. Good! I hope they all cancel their preorders! I remember when Livescope was first introduced and only showed tarpon and people swimming. I thought what a joke. Boy was I wrong. Hopefully a few units will get into the hands of a few crappie fishermen and we'll get a chance to see if Mega Live is any good or not.

    Guess we will wait and see, be nice if could use G4N then share it to other units since it connected by ethernet. I'm thinking only a G3 or G4 Helix will recognize it even connected to the network.

    It will benefit the guys running compatible Bird head units but from what Ive seen, Garmin Livescope beat them hands down.
    Im still hearing from (in the know) hummingbird folks that the release date will be the last quarter of the year.
    I run 3 Birds on my boat and still glad I pulled the trigger on a Garmin instead of waiting.

    Humminbird posted another video on Facebook that shows crappie on structure. It looks significantly better than the first video they posted, but not even close to a decently setup livescope.

    Here is a screenshot of it:

    Folks that are skeptical it’s as good as livescope aren’t “haters”, “internet experts”, or bashing the brand because they are Garmin fanboys. Most guys I know are really hoping for Humminbird to hit a homerun on this.
