* *SEEYOU MOBILE DOES NOT SUPPORT SATELLITE RASTER MAPS!!

Now you tell me! (JK, I should have mentioned my specific problem
first...). Boy, it sure has been a while since I loaded any maps into
either SYM or SeeYou though... *Got my VECTOR maps loaded no problems
once I thought I knew what I was doing again, bluetooth happy, and did
some meaningful flying in my simpit in front of the beamer last
night...

Sometimes, I wish Mobile did support raster maps, so I could load a
sectional, or Blipmaps, but I'm not sure it would actually help my flying..

RASP BLIPMAP of convergence on blue days and wave forecast charts
would be useful, maybe other forecasts. But it needs the ability to
load forecast charts maps for different times of day etc. while in
flight. Some way of (internal or external of SYM) of stitching charts
together and doing projection transformations.

Ah in the future we'll have a RASP plug-in for our soaring software
that will crunch RASP calculations in real time including using the
local soundings calculated from our air-data computer :-)

Sectionals almost need vector data, with ability to turn on and off
stuff, otherwise I think there is too much clutter to be useful on a
small screen.
