I tried that first, but found that the cigarette lighter socket that I
bought was not secure enough to trust in turbulence. I also didn't want
the USB wire bundled up and hanging off the instrument panel. So now
things are hard wired, bundled and behind the panel with only a few inches
of USB cable hanging out to plug the 310 into.

the latest release of XC Soar is out, as of today. I've loaded it on
to my iPAQ 310 and am giving it a go. Won't be able to fly with it for
a bit, but in the sim mode on the couch it looks pretty cool!

This is brilliant!!

I just bought an Ipaq 310 on ebay for $155 looking forward to loading
it up with this software.

New version looks amazing with the LK8000 look.

Cheers
