Sounds like they aren't really charging a lot more for it, but it will be interesting to see an actual user post comparison non-marketing shots. Getting back into the boat game (small scale) once i get into my new house, so I will be looking for a single unit with a modest price. All brands welcome :)
Here's a few more screenshots of HB Mega Imaging I have found ...

Look's great. There is no where a fish can hide anymore. The dedicated DI will be hard to resist compared to the blended I'm use to.

Anyone know if the price points for the new Mega units are going to be comparable with Gen 1 units. Have an 899 si at console and was just looking to add a bow mount to hook up to my MK us/2 on bow. If price comparable maybe I upgrade console and just hookup 899si head unit on bow. Glad to see the Helix 7's now can be networked....

:dono:dono:donoI've been thinking about this new transducer.The talk is that it going to have separate Piezo elements for mega scanning and the regular kHz ,that were all used to.side and diwn imaging.seems to me that that transducers going to be pretty crowded,with all that in there.Also seems to me,if that transducer is a low Q transducer,it would be pretty expensive to bulit? ? dono:yikes
It's my understanding the new Mega xducer is very similar to the ONIX SI xducer ...maybe a smidge longer ...
