I had a lot of fun with my FB, and being completely self contained (display, battery, and transducer all in a single housing) made it very convenient to use and learn with. I upgraded because I'm an electronics nerd and found the technology of sonar to be fascinating. However, I do miss the side-scan feature of the FB for seeing fish coming in line with my fly 40-90 feet behind my 'toon.
If one wanted a bigger screen (5"), it would be hard to beat the Humminbird 561s for $160 or less.
I only have experience with Humminbird, but most of the brands have more or less the same features for the same price.
