Default How many pilots are using technology

I work in the military simulation industry. One of the retired soldiers
had a sig on his office door:

"A map with a bullet hole in it is a map. A computer with a bullet hole
in it is a boat anchor."

These tools are wonderful, but paper as backup is essential. I also
carry a handheld GPS in my flight bag. And I'll add a handheld radio
when I can afford it.

I would like to know, how many of us, pilots are using the current
technology out there to our benifit. I'm talking about GPS, E-Flight
Bag, E-Aviation Charts. How long do you think before paper-less
cockpits become the standard?
