I'm not sure I want a touch screen......especially if there is no option to do the functions with buttons.
  I have heard that people like them, but I get my fingers dirty a LOT in the boat.  There are also issues in the rain and cold weather.

The ONIX gives you the option of using either one......I like that concept.
WAY more than $700 though.

Thats what I was thinking. The touch screen is not for live bait fisherman, or fishing in the cold or rain. But the ONIX is on point with the option to go either way. Id be cool with that, just not the $2600+ price tag.

Touchscreens are no good for cut baitfishermen either.
I never touch my screen and it still gets dirty.
I can't imagine touching the screen with bait blood on my hands.

I have also found touch screens do not bode well with my OCD ...

I'm using the buttons as much as possible on my Onix ...
