Pre-Flight
For a couple of years now, I've been using the Garmin Pilot app on my Note 2 smartphone (great phone, big screen). I am planning to buy a Nexus 7 tablet, almost exclusively to use with the Garmin Pilot app and maybe a couple of other aviation apps. (On the tablet I'll be able to do split-screen views in flight that the phone version doesn't allow.)
My dilemma is getting it with 16gb of storage, or 32gb, with a difference of a whopping $100. With my so-far VFR-only flying, storage hasn't been a problem on my Note 2 (16gb), as all my pics, videos, ringtones, etc., are stored on the SD card. But, as I'm about to start learning IFR and will add the IFR charts, approach plates, and other IFR-related functionalities to the app, will 16gb be enough? (No SD card slot on the tablet.) I don't plan to use the tablet for games, music, photos, or anything else; just for flying.
Your recommendations re 16 vs 32 are appreciated. Please DO NOT tell me to get an iPad, as I **WON'T**. Thanks in advance!
