Default New Garmin 200i track and train system

I have been waiting in anticipation for the new Garmin collar system. My hunting partner has been field testing this system for the last year and a half and I was impressed.
Last week they started advertising this system so I sold my Alpha 100 and ordered the new 200i which arrived yesterday.
I really like the new larger and clearer screen. You can read this screen just like the newer cells phones right in direct sunlight.
It features a better touch screen which can be operated even with gloves on.
Along with all the features on the Alpha 100 it has some other great features.
Much easier to select dogs and control the correction and tones.
This system also offers inReach. Although it requires a subscription service you have a SOS button, ability to get weather as well as the ability to send and receive texts in areas where there is no cell service.
For those of us that hunt alone many times this could be a real life saver.
Anyone eles looking at this new system, or have ordered one?
