I would recommend that you don't get any waders thicker than 3mm. You can always layer when it gets colder, but you can't unlayer when it gets hot. In the summer months, I'll wear a light pair of socks and shorts under my waders. The neopreme will insulate me from the really cold stuff, and it'll be a nice temp.
If you do wear shorts though, wait until you get next to the water to put the waders on. Otherwise, you'll sweat like a maniac. You can find some really good prices on-line, my last pair of waders cost $35 (hodgeman neopreme) on an internet closeout.
Good luck on your decision! Personally, I would go waders 1st, fishfinder 2nd. That way I can fish during the cold season instead of sitting at home looking at my fishfinder.
