I'm looking for the ability to just load and read approach plates on my
Ipaq. I know that Control Vision has their Pocket Plates, but with a
Garmin 430 I don't need geo-referencing, etc etc.

Anyone know of simpler setups available? I'd guess there should also
be a way to limit what you load by area or type of approach.


I have tried both PocketPlates and the Seattle Avionics product. Of the
two, PocketPlates is much better on the PocketPC because it displays the
plate in its own "lightweight" viewer--the Seattle Avionics product
relies on Adobe Reader PocketPC to view the plate (seemed like a huge
slug on the iPaq 4705). The PocketPlates update and sync operations
were much, much simpler. You do not have to use the geo-referencing
ability of PocketPlates.
