Hi Eric,

It does look somewhat interesting. The use of a hard drive makes it less
interesting to me.

I think your statement below comparing the iPAQ 3800 and 2200 is not quite
correct. They are not the same technology. The 3800 was (if I remember
correctly) "reflective" and the 2200 (and all recent iPAQs) are
"transflective". That explains the difference in sunlight visibility (which
I think is less dramatic a difference than many other glider pilots).

I think you are right about the 2200/3800, (I couldn't find a reference
to "reflective" for the 3800 in brochures I have, but I remember it
being used with older models). But, it is still true that there is quite
a variation between displays of the different units, even if all are
using transflective screens, due to design and manufacturing choices.
