Yes Darryl, that is exactly what I am thinking. The PDA's shortcoming
(small dim screens) which derive from the concept of something that fits in your pocket and runs on batteries is being replaced by ever more powerful auto GPS devices with larger and brighter screens running Windows CE. Andrej Kolar has indicated that at some point SeeYou Mobile will run on some or all of these, but not when. There will be positives and negatives to this. A positive will be low cost; one nice example costs $200 with built-in GPS. However, getting an approved IGC file out of it will probably never happen. The clearnav and UP seem like really nice gear for those who have the money and the panel space, but perhaps other options will become available.

There is a fairly large market for Windows CE based controllers/display nits for point of sale and similar applications from which the ClearNav and presumably this one are based. And leveraging existing technology is a good thing. Porting Windows Mobile based applications like WinPilot and SeeYou Mobile to these devices should be relatively easy. Darryl |
