Great review! Thanks very much.

I like your positioning the WxWorx window at the top of a portrait
display. I am flying with a Fujitsu Stylistic tablet, though, whose
resolution is only 800x600. I suspect that with a little window
dragging, though, one could see most of the actual data display area
and just move the buttons on screen as needed.

Thanks again.

I have been using WxWorx for nine months, beginning with the early
beta software. I prefer a tablet pc with enough resolution to run

in
portrait mode with WxWorx on the top 1/2 of the screen and XMLink on
the lower 1/2 so I can monitor the signal status. I have a velcro
kneeboard the compaq tablet attaches to. I am doing a talk for a
local aviation conference and posted the powerpoint files to

Warning, slow connections will take some time to see the photos, but
you will clearly see what the display looks like in sunlight,

portait
mode, in actual convection, etc. There are some comparison of XM-WX
data to data from internet sources.
