Even could you elaborate on some of the specific things you like about CN2 vs Top Hat or XCSoar?

Presentation (literal info at a glance for me), input style, reliability, AAT and MAT functionality all save time. Very low fuss factor in flight. I take the attitude that every second my eyes have to be in the cockpit is a lost opportunity.

Voice alert interface for flarm is great too ("Traffic, 5 o'clock high").

CN2 not perfect, has some aggravations. Mostly these are things that don't get in the way during flight.

For recreational XC the open source tools are okay. When you start flying tasks and performance matters, I think you will find shortcomings.
