This would also obviate the need for a separate LCD monitor at the Nav station...

If I had a PB that would handle the work (I still have my trusty ol' PB 145...) I'd just use it too. As I do not, I liked the mini for price, and for the fact I can tuck it away in the shelf next to the nav station and put a monitor on a swing arm. It does incur extra costs for power supply, 12 VDC monitor, etc., but even then it's a pretty reasonable total cost.
