Does someone know how to connect a 195 to a palmtop and use the palmtop in a
C182. Reason: I want a larger screen (yes, got readingglasses as well).
Which palmtop could be used?

Do you mean a Palm Pilot device or a small laptop computer?
The 195's screen is already larger than a Palm Pilot device.

None of the palmtops I've seen have a larger screen. Anyway, the only thing
a 195 puts out is position strings on it's serial interface, you wouldn't get the map.
If you're going to get a PDA map program, might as well just get a GPS unit
that goes with the PDA. Look at AnywhereMap's offerings.

I saw the ad in this months EAA magazine.
They are priced at $29.95 - I just ordered one.

The clip-on looks good and is a bit cheaper.
Thanks
