With your experience, is GTN650 the way forward?
The advantage would be ready availability of RNAV approaches and airways IFR capability but don't forget it'll cost you around £350 per annum to keep the NAVDATA current.
There's an iPad App which is designed as a GTN training aid, so I'd download that if you can and have a play.
