iLevel has their FAA approval for type certified:

and uAvionix is anticipating their approval early 2018:

It seems that NORSEE is allowing a lot of ADSB options at an affordable price point. My guess is it will continue to sweeten with time.

It is true that the 978 units will not work with the system in Canada and Mexico. But you will not be restricted from flying in Canada.
At this point Canada has no ADS-B mandate. Mexico has a 2020 mandate just like the USA.

Thanks Kirk. Reading that article, it seems to imply that it WILL be required for flight in Canada in the near future, but it's not 100% clear. The second sentence in the first paragraph caught my attention:Kirk wrote:It is true that the 978 units will not work with the system in Canada and Mexico. But you will not be restricted from flying in Canada.

Outside the United States
At this time, only the United States is allowing the 978UAT datalink for ADS-B Out. If you plan to fly in ADS-B airspace outside of the United States, a 1090ES datalink—using a Mode S Extended Squitter transponder—will be required. Because the list of countries with ADS-B Out requirements and proposals is growing, we strongly recommend equipping with 1090ES if you plan to fly internationally. Remember that for countries without a mandate, there is no ADS-B Out requirement.
Countries with ADS-B Out mandates and proposals
Canada. Currently no mandate, but operators who voluntarily equip with 1090ES (particularly in the Hudson Bay and nearby oceanic airspace) can receive a higher level of service. Nav Canada is part of a joint air traffic surveillance venture, Aireon, installing ADS-B equipment on low-earth-orbit satellites. Nav Canada will be the launch customer when the service becomes available in 2018, and initially intends to incorporate 1090ES ADS-B into North Atlantic airspace.

Andy (and all),
I too will equip with dual 978/1090ES just to hedge against the chance I will end up somewhere other than the US. My transponder is dated anyway and really is the weak point of the avionics.
I was interested in the UAVIONICS nav/strobe but really should bite on a transponder too. Also started wondering if it would work with my M5 droop tips. I don't think the antenna will clear the tips below the nav light location?
