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.

out on sunlight--unreadable
Hower I bought a cheap plastic
Container that the bottom fits the I pad.
With sides about 4inhight, painted
The inside black. 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.
FWIW,
Charlie
