Come on all you data dinks and code munchers! SOMEONE has to be able to
build a Jepp-Killer app for the Tablet PC at half the annual subscription
cost!!! I would be willing to pay $500/year for all approach plates and
VFR/IFR charts compatible with good moving map software that had NexRAD
overlay capability, and I am sure there are many other pilots out there
willing to pay that much for a good alternative to Jepp...


How about an etch-a-sketch.. only costs like $10 and takes up the
same amount of space ;-)

G'day

It's not the G's as much as the turbulence...
