Question for you contest fliers...

Thanks for the input guys.
I already have a PDA with SeeYou on it, but haven't gotten around to
installing it in the ship. My feeling is that the cockpit will be a
tad busy with the addition of the PDA. Just to give you some
background, this ship is new to me and I'm a low timer. I figure I can
use the 302/303 to get my x-country legs under me and shoot for some
badges. Once I'm comfortable and confident enough, I'd like to try a
regional contest or two, but that's gonna be a while.
A 303 is fine for basic cross country and badge flights. However,
having a moving map available will increase your comfort level and
reduce your overall workload. A moving map provides continuous feedback
as to your location and reachable land out options, which you won't get
from a 303 alone...
