Is there a planned hardware upgrade pathway for the EX5000 MFD? The 15 year old hamster in there must be running that wheel pretty hard. Sometimes it takes 4 or 5 seconds just to change screen or zoom the map. I gotta believe the steady stream of ADS-B data is going to tax that limited memory and CPU capability even more.

No public plans at the moment. This does come up frequently internally.

I have one of those (EX5000) also, controlling my radar (ART2100).
