The 530 will soon have terrain with only the addition of a datacard. The
430 will likely support it too but it will be more useful with the larger
screen. I like the 530s arc view which gives you 100nm in front of the
airplane. With the 430 you can see about 100nm in front. Any farther than
that and useful items, like VORs, start to drop off the screen.
