    I use the iFly 700, and find it really good in the sunlight. I haven't seen anything better. I don't think an iPad could do anywhere near as well. JG

Makesthe I pad Perfectly readable in any light.I use the I pad for all fllight planing , as a GPS , charts and all navigation. Great setup and cheap. Good luck Frank.

    I believe the thread was "Modern GPSes", and the Garmin 60CX was mentioned as being viewable in daylight.

    I use an original nexus 7 in an rv4 (bubble canopy) with no problems seeing screen details. The newer '2013' model is said to be much brighter still, and has more total pixels than a full size ipad with Retina display. I find the free Avare software to be more than adequate for basic navigation.
