Just got off the phone with Garmin.
They are currently in S/W dev for the Skymaster. No physical implementation yet. Once they get to the H/W stage they estimate about 1-2 years what with further R&D and FAA to get through.
I asked if they would usually see an actual product materialize (eventually) once they've gotten to the development phase they are currently in. He said that unless they just can't make it work right or the FAA won't cooperate it usually does materialize. Given that other aftermarket APs have, I see no reason why Garmin couldn't. They have multiple products which operate at multiple levels of servo size/strength.
