Guys

anyone tried this...?
looks like a great solution to the laptop issue , especially if you are an
aircraft owner , where the wiring could be tidied up and left in the
aircraft

I did that with my tablet for a while. It did not cost anything. I just took
out the strap for my kneeboard and attached it to the back of the tablet.
Because tablet PCs can have glare off the surface and limited angle of
view, I found myself continually juggling it with my knee to be able to
see it properly. I changed it to a yoke mount, which brought it to the
correct spot to view it, and angle.

Tablets are good solutions to get the "glass cockpit" feel while we
are still waiting for G1000 prices to come down :-) (probally a long
wait). I would suggest to anyone trying this to get the lightest, smallest
and highest resolution unit available, and try it out in daylight and
pitch darkness (yes, they can be too bright as well).
