I have a 565 and really like it! I use it on the ice and in the boat. I have ice fished right next to guys with the Lowrance units, and mine does everything they do. I can't see a good reason to switch.
Now if you were just going to use it ice fishing I would get a Vexilar. Not because it's alot better, but because you don't have to worry about the LCD screen freezing up. The Vex is probably a little smaller and compact unit for the ice. But they cost way more than a 565!
