I purchased two Hummingbird models that I am very pleased with. The 917C has GPS and a 931 for the front of the boat. Both have 7" screens and both were purchased once Hummingbird closed out the model. They were state-of-the-art (just as all graphs are) right up until the day that the manufacturer stops making them. I saved a bundle purchasing the graphs in this manner. The 931 came direct from Hummingbird and the 917C was $300 off at West Marine.
If you are patient, search the best web sites and often, and are not in a rush to buy right this minute ... I believe this method is a good way to go.
This all transpired last spring (2010). Hummingbird has beefed up the remaining 900 series models, so I doubt they will close any of the remaining 900 models out anytime prior to next spring.
Hummingbird has a closeout section on their web site.
