http://rdd.me/ryoliosm I doesn't matter how 'smart' our gadgets are
if you can't read the damn screens with a quick glance. Qualcom's Mirasol display looks like a magazine cover in direct sunlight. |

Watch the projected-delay graph ;-) |

I hate to break it to you guys, but there is a gorgeous sunlight readable display on the market, the clear-nav. SN10 is pretty easy to read too, but offers less stuff on the screen, which Dave might argue is an advantage. No need to wait... John Cochrane The Dell Streak 5 is only $200-$400 and has a great sun readable display. Ramy |

The Dell Streak Mini is still the best cockpit device you can get currently. It takes advantage of the sunlight (transflective screen) instead of trying to beat the sun. Max |

Max,
Does the Streak support connecting to the modern varios to get data? (Sorry if I'm being stupid). -John |

Max There might be better choice out the http://www.slashgear.com/samsung-gal...view-02192592/ the Samsung Galaxy Player with 5" TFT display, GPS and Wi-Fi for around $250 is a really good find. It also has reasonable power consumption and 2.5 AH battery. It also has a newer Android version than the Dell. |

Best set up i've ever used is the SeeYou Oudie linked to an LNAV, can not
beat it, Fairly cheap and does the same job as an LX9000! It is so easy to use, 5mins is enough for the average person! |

Does the Oudie set the current destination into the LNAV ? Is the Oudie using any winds or TAS info from the LNAV ? |
