iPaq screen reflections - anyone really happy with their solution?

John

A button on the front of the Ipaq can be assigned to 1 Map, this will turn
the terrain on and off and give you the terrain or the white screen.
Menu - edit - touch button on the bottom of the screen - select 1 Map from
the Button function drop down menu.

In response to your question Paul:
I 'turn off the color' as a function of the Winpilot program. I don't
remember exactly but I think it is the topographic map display in one
of the setup windows. This feature sounded great when I bought
Winpilot Pro but really isn't necessary if I keep my eyes out of the
cockpit. Viewing the display is significantly improved in B/W vs.
Color.

In regards to comments by others: I do not understand why people are
so concerned about lookout when using a PDA. For me it is a lot easier
to use a PDA than a sectional for most common navigational purposes.

To me is seems all a matter of preparation no matter what you are
using in regards to outside the cockpit awareness. If you are learning
to use one or the other in the air you will not be as aware as you
should be.

Know your PDA's funcionality BEFORE you fly.

Hi,

I do finally have a few TEKK cradles for older iPAQs (3100, 3600, 3700).

Apparently, then, there is more than a little variability in the
Mertins
mounts - quality wise. I was completely satisfied with the fit and
finish of the one I received.

Same here, I have been very satisified using my Mertins mount for the
past 6 months with my IPAQ 3635. At least at the time I was looking,
the TEKK mounts were not available for the older IPAQ's.
