Stratus II Why? more importantly, Why Not?

[mv_myrx]

I see a lot of classifieds for people selling their Stratus II units most are on the AOPA forum. For those that have them and those who sold them, "WHY" what did the unit do and NOT do for you?
I am considering the Appareo esg transponder in the spring and question the reasons sense the 2 are designed to work together.
