give the 900 a major improvement over the 800 besides
the large screen display.
 
My experience with the EDM 900 has for the most part been negative.  I've flown aproximately 60-70 hrs with the EDM 900 and even after being replaced several times by JPI, continues to have glitchy problems.  It is also difficult to use.  To be fair, I've talked with two pilots that are not having problems with it, but they too think it is not very intuitive to use.
 
I would consider Vision, EI or Grand Rapids or Chelton before JPI.
