Yup that pretty much summarizes it. In general I don't need to be tapping
away at the keyboard. More often than not I'm changing zoom ranges. That's done with the hat switch on the pda so it's not much of an issue. The buttons on the pda are configurable and most common functions are taken care of there. In the times that I have needed to use the keyboard to type a new route or something like that I have been able to do it but not without some difficulty. I wouldn't let that stop you from getting it though. "Stephen McNaught" wrote in message ... For me, if the turbulence was "bad enough", I wouldn't be messing with the PDA, as I use it for situational awareness only. Having said that, there a few things that assist in rough air. First you can assign functions to the physical buttons on the PDA. Second, Control Vision has a feature called "Rough Air Buttons", that are icons that you can show on the screen for several functions. Third, Control Vision supplies a keyboard with larger character keys. A couple screenshots : http://www.shn.org/AWSIPA.jpg http://www.shn.org/AWSIP1.jpg "Andrew Gideon" wrote in message online.com... What about in turbulance? How do you enter data on the palmtop while bouncing? - Andrew |
