There's a guy on the CPA board who ran the software on a tablet and an
ipaq 4705. For this software the tablet killed the ipaq. It took a
full 10 seconds to zoom in one level on the ipaq, the tablet does it
immediately. Generally speaking the software runs very slow on the PDA.

Thanks to all who replied to my in-flight weather questions.

I think that I've narrowed my selection down to a PDA solution using the
iPaq 4700, along with packages for XM weather an moving map from either
Control Vision (AnywhereWx) or AirGator (NavAirWx).

Detailed information on the web sites of both companies is a little
sketchy, and the photos are unclear, but the photos appear to show a
slightly more impressive software display from AirGator's NavAirWx than
from AnywhereWx / Map.

I have been advised that AnywhereMap's "Cones of Safety" feature is
valuable, but I am trying to place a priority on the weather display and
easy of use. Does AirGator have a better system for weather?



Thanks,
