I have the EFB from NavAero: $3000 and True_Flight $500
see
www.AviationSafety.com
and
www.NavAero.com
Used as a portable device, it's 6 pounds with an 8.4" touch screen display.
It has all the bells and whistles you asked for. It's basically a remote
laptop with a touch display.
Thx, {|;-)

The following are a list of features that I wish for. But I am willing
to settle for something that is as close as possible:
Color,
Bigger the better (to help with my aging eyes),
Approach procedures (at less with final approach waypoints like Garmin
296, but all waypoints, including waypoints for ILS and DME, will be
nicer),
Holding patterns,
Terrain warning,
Vertical navigation for published LNAV/VNAV and LPV approaches (are
they available on any protable?),
Automatic log book.
I will consider PDA or PC based system as well.
Your suggestion?
