The zoom seems to be a lot sharper and cleaner looking than the original

I assume “HOPE” we will be seeing this in a 360 model soon?

Wonder if this is the death kiss for the onix. Or like yall said maybe something crazy for the onix is coming out.

And Don't forget the Other New Features for Humminbird HELIX G2N Units
Bluetooth Connectivity
HANDS-FREE FISHING BUILT IN
Bluetooth® capability keeps your phone out of the water and in your pocket by displaying notifications on your HELIX. You can also take control of your most-used features with an optional Bluetooth remote.
New AutoChart LIVE Features
Bottom Hardness
Now the detail goes even deeper. AutoChart Live uses sonar to measure and chart bottom hardness, tipping you off to likely hotspots.
Vegetation
The weedline can no longer hide. With help from your sonar beam, AutoChart Live can now instantly map weeds, brush and other vegetation

I can see the zoom being used a LOT with this technology ..... Since the images are so sharp, the fish will appear smaller than before on SI.....but really pop when zoomed.
I can see some future software upgrades for the Bluetooth.

The resolution on the Onix is less than the Helix.

OK .... So now add map sharing and scroll back so we can quit hearing about that from ......the other guys.

The Onix color pallette is much better as is the transducer or was. Onix images were the best out there.
I sure hope they continue the Onix. I will be bummed out if they are going back to the Helix.

Am I missing something?
I thought Minn Kota and Humminbird had a big announcement "TODAY"
http://www.bbcboards.net/showthread....753666&page=11 POST #203

This new "Mega Imaging" is incredible! And I for one want one but this was out there a couple days ago
and the only connection to Minn Kota is the follow bottom hardness / weeds
And all the discussion prior to today was saying the announcement wasn’t about the new Helix G2N
SO IS THIS THE BIG ANNOUNCEMENT? IS THERE MORE TO COME?
Next - when Bass Pro slipped up the other day and posted all the new Helix G2N units they had Chirp SI & DI Icons http://www.bbcboards.net/showthread.php?t=753666&page=8 POST #153
Attachment 259043
Now we are talking about Mega SI and DI
Why would they create these icons if there wasn't going to be Chirp SI & DI?

Since the units have blue tooth. I would think the next step is to eliminate the ethernet networking, cabling,and switch and just use blue tooth to connect all devices?
