My 3970 that runs Winpilot has died and I need to replace it. I have a 3900
cradle fitted to the cockpit. What can you guys recommend that will run
Winpilot?

I believe the 5500 series IPAQ will fit in the same cradle. Can anyone
confirm this? What about other models?

The IPAQ 214 is more powerful but I would have to feed it by bluetooth.
Has anyone done this?

Which model has the brightest screen? I am getting older and the eyes
don't work as well as they did!

Will Winpilot run on the HP314? This has a big bright screen and is very
cheap.

Suggestions based on experience would be very welcome.

Thanks

Jim


Jim,

I am the US WinPIlot dealer and recommend the Ipaq 5555 with a clear
touch antiglare screen protector or an Ipaq 4700. . WinPilot ADV &
PRO will run on both. The Ipaq 5555 uses the same cradle as your
3900, the 47xx requires a different cradle.

If you have any other questions please call or email.

Thanks
