Does Mode S with TIS displayed on the GNS 430W have enough practical value
to justify the $2000 cost to upgrade to the GTX 330 from the GTX 327?
Is anyone using it now?

I haven't seen it on a 430W before, but even on the small
screen on my 480 it's plenty worthwhile, and even better
on the larger Chelton screens. I'd say that if you're
living out East by you, it's probably one of those
nearly must-have things if you're not going to have ADS-B
coverage there.

Eric,
I have a fully integrated Chelton EFIS system will almost all of the
bells and whistles. The WSI weather (some use XM) overlay is to me the
best bang for the buck, followed closely by some form of graphic traffic
system. I am using the TIS format, when you are in a busy terminal area
you have good traffic depiction. At work I have TCAS and find that TIS
works very will by comparison. I have a simple proximity system for the
non-terminal areas.
