The 7"' touch screen (big enough to display an entire approach plate) sports 800 x 480 resolution with a crisp, clear picture and excellent color. Built in Bluetooth, WiFi and wired ethernet gives you communications flexibility in the cockpit and on the ground. WindowsXP with InstantON, a 40Gb hard drive and fingertip controls give you access to navigation information and current weather while taking advantage of NAVair's intuitive user interface.

I think I have tried all of the PDA based applications and I also tried WxWorx in an earlier version using a laptop. The one I am using now is NAVAir which so far has performed extremely well. I am reluctant to get into PC based applications because of the altitude issue since I regularly fly at 12000 and above. ATC direct routing is very easy to get when you are at 14000. No one else is there.
