Garmin equal Microsoft

With the launch of Garmin 396 enhanced features something starts to puzzle me.
Isnīt Garmin doing the same that Microsoft did with Windows some years ago?
Though they have the tech they are delaying to obtain more profits and they lead the customer to a certein vicious behavior.Who bought the 296 last year will probably wants to buy the new one to have acess to the new features creating a psychological addiction to the products. No one wants to stay behind in terms of safety.
I donīt have anyone but in 2003 I was interessed in the PilotIII. Iīm glad I didnīt buy it because it seams like Windows95 to me nowadays.
