I was leaning towards the ClearNav/LX approach of buttons rather than the trackball, although I believe both are quite workable. I currently use an Oudie and have had problems in rough air with the touchscreen.



The LX 9000 does look most interesting, but would be a lot more attractive if the Euro was at 0.8 to the US dollar instead of 1.35! The idea of putting the computer on a RAM mount within easy reach wasn't an idea I had originally considered, but might actually be viable.



I wonder how many here have taken that approach?

I have had CN on a ram mount for two seasons... no issues, works great, solid as the proverbial rock (lotsa ridge flying). The tunnel or behind panel mounts are prettier, but the ram mount allowed me to keep all my antique 80mm gauges. Hit me up if you have any CN questions or browse our forum for more info.
