Default 430W firmware question

What is the latest firmware for the 430W?

What is the difference between the "main" fw and the "GPS" firmware listed on the startup screen?

In the manual Garmin makes reference to certain features are only in version x.xx or above. Is this main or gps version #?

Found enough stuff online to answer my own question.

Seems 4.0 is the latest "main" rev but most of it seems related to helicopter use.

Seems 3.2 is the latest "GPS" rev

Seems when they mention features requiring a certain rev level, they are talking about the "main" version.
