My friend has AnywhereMap on his iPAQ. It works very well if you need
the full approach plates, etc. We both concluded for VFR piloting, that
my Lowrance Airmap 500 was nicer as it had a longer battery life, had
less to hook up(just the external antenna) and was easier to operate one
handed. It was a personal preference thing as both units worked well.
