Default New garmin 4208 vs Furuno

I am patiently waiting on my Garmin 4208 bundle (Chart plotter ; Radar ; Depth recorder and weather to arrive. It doesn't look like I will live long enough to use this equipment.

Since no delivery date is even guessed, I am leaning to another brand.

What are the recommendations of the group?
A- Sit tight and wait
B- Start looking for something else. IF SO....WHAT?

Why not just go get the 3210 bundle and upgrade the Display next year?

Mike is right, since the bundles will not even be out for another few months, get the 3210 Bundle now. I installed one in my boat and plan to put a new model in as soon as they come out. A barely used 3210 will be a piece of cake to sell.
