Before you decide on either try to have a viewing in full sunlight to
see if they're, in fact, useful at all. I had a Galaxy III for a while and found it next to useless in direct sunlight. I made a sun shade from construction paper and tape and that helped but, when the sun was behind me, the Galaxy III was useless. I used my wife's Nexus 7 in my glider and found that it was readable in sunlight, but just barely when the sun was behind me. I have no experience with the Oudie but I lot of people like them. I use a Dell Streak 5 which is fully readable in all lighting conditions, including the sun over my shoulder. I like it so much, in fact, that I bought a second one to keep as a spare for that inevitable day when the one I fly with dies or gets stepped on. You can get them brand new on Amazon for $100 and XCSoar and Tophat are free.
