They do look good. Would be fun to play with the ADS-B model. DualNav specs say battery life is only 10 hours though . This could be problematic if you fly long sectors in the 787. Impractical to get a charge lead up to the escape hatch which is about the only place where a GPS will consistently and reliably work in the 787. The BadElfs 2200 & 2300 have 16 & 24 hours battery (with BT in use) which would pull most of us up.
