I'm kinda liking the looks of the Blue Mountain EFIS Sport these days. I
When you get a chance to play with it I'd like to hear your impressions.

Will do. Not sure when we'll actually get it delivered (prolly in April).
Sure looks good on paper, though. I looked at their smaller unit (the Lite).
Pretty small display, but bright. Too much info crammed in too small a space
for my tastes. Might be able to declutter it a bunch, though. THe EFIS One
is just too damned big. It eats most of an instrument panel. I don't like
the idea of using one piece of equipment for so many functions when it's so
big that I have no room for backups. The Sport seems just about right.

I have never used a PDA for anything. Then again I don't have a cellular
phone, FAX, etc. Retired life is SO rough

I don't have any of the above, either. Clutters up life and desk space too
much. The only portable electronic device I own (besides a watch), is my
hand-held GPS.

They're not very big. You would probably build a small shelf and mount
it
I was thinking along the lines of a temporary installation which I
assumed was the whole idea of a PDA system.

Oh. I was thinking of where to mount the sensor unit (Crossbow or other
6-dof sensor package), not the display. Need to level them (or do a bunch of
calculations for correcting for off-level installation).
