HDS5 possible software problem
Please somebody, can you confirm that the structure scan will end up being handled like the HD release? That is, before the HD units were out you could buy an add on black box that would convert your images to HD, just as the structure scan add on is being handled now, buy a black box for around $900.00 and you can have structure scan on your HD set.
Have also heard a whisper that the side scan images will be rotated 90 degrees in the future so you don't have to tilt your head to read the image, that is the image you see on the screen will show up as up down as down left as left etc.
Now wouldn't you be well and truly pi###ed off it you outlayed all that cash and a few months later the new model is brought out with all the bells and whistles already built in to the unit.

John.

I probably did the wrong thing and tacked this on the back of another thread and decided to give it a name of its own.

I thought the topic was strong enough to pose much thought, seeing as you can still purchase the black box to convert your old out of date LCX'S & LMS'S to HD. Also the thought of the structure scan images being shown on the screen the right way up, would make it so much easier to understand.

Cheers,
John.
