Steve, I am in the same boat as you but I don't want to wait. Something you might want to consider is purchasing a Garmin 430 tray, CDI, and GPS WAAS antenna and have them waiting on the shelf. Then when the 540 ships, you'll have everything ready to be wired on the bench and installed in the aircraft. So the only thing that will be required when the 440 ships is to just slide it in the tray. That's what I did.
