Default Garmin plotters NOW have AIS support !!

I have donloaded today the updated mannuals of GpsMap3005/3010/3205/498
and the AIS support is there.

It seems prety basic yet: there is a new option in the NMEA IN/OUT for
High Speed (38400) and an AIS Tab in Map Page to select the zoom
scale to wich AIS targets appears. The mannual says it diplays MMSI,
ships position, course and speed . I have not seen any option to set
alarms, nor CPA/TCPA options, but seems that we can set the heading
line of the sips (?) on time or distance.

Anibody can post here more info in this subject, please?

Anyway, I would like very much if this support would be implemented in
our GpsMap276C azap...
