Final Approach
Sorry, I couldn't find the old thread. Thinking of subscribing to an electronic chart solution again. I had Chart Case before with all VFR, IFR (high and low enroute), terminal and approaches before. They have a tablet PC with all this on it called Chartbook. Looks like $1,795 all inclusive; then annual subscription of about $350 to keep updated using FAA charts.

Jepp View seems to be much more expensive but they don't cite cost on the web page anywhere I can find. IIRC the annual subscription alone for national charts was over $1,000.
Can anyone tell me about these systems. I can put the Chartcase electronic charts on my Dell laptop, but it's too big to manage in the cockpit and the screen bleached out in bright sunlight.
Anyway, I'd appreciate the collective's thoughts!
Best,
Dave
