Rod
The LX-5000 has a 9-pin connector for an iPAQ, but the slave (back-seat)
does not appear to have the same type of wiring setup. Can anyone give me a
hand on completing the wiring between the slaved Filser and the iPAQ?
Thanks,

Great Visibility with iPAQ 3835 by
Rich Kiray
From a visibility standpoint, I recommend the use of the older iPAQs
for use in the cockpit - strictly from a visibility standpoint. I'm
using an iPAQ3835 with a simple screen protector and no back lighting.
The display is quite easy to read, even with polarized sun glasses.

Through the contributions to the avoiding VNE thread
