What is a good unit, humminbird or lowrance, that is a good budget color unit that can accept a navionics card?

The only unit I have had in that $ catagory and capability is the Lowrance 527 or 520. The only difference in the two is that the 527 has an internal GPS antenna making it more portable. They both have excellent displays and are easy to use. There should be several available at good prices now that the HD systems are out and accessory parts are readily available.

I use and love the LCX-28C HD by Lowrance. It is in my videos. Has a nice size screen and shows fish really well.
