Most likely not for awhile. I have a 898 unit and they jumped the gun on the update it is not the full package.

I have no official word but I don’t think that it will be a whole lot longer ITGEEK, as the 5.700 software was on the Humminbird web site for the 858c yesterday.  They are probably working their way through the current units first and will than start through the “legacy” units like the 1197c Si afterwards.

tennwalkinghorse,
What do you mean by “it is not the full package”?
