Jeppview is a lot cheaper than q-service charts.

Well considering all of the info is on a server and simply either burned on a cd or accessed by internet, it should be a lot less costlier than it is. Yeah I know it's cheaper than Q service, but then again there isn't half of a tree showing up in the mail box every two weeks.

I am wondering the same questions. We are starting to manage a KA200 and we just don't want to deal all US charts and the hassle of updating them.
It looks to me there isn't a single solution that will give us charts + planning + tablet pc capability all at once with ease of use and cost effectiveness.
we are planning to use jeppview and use duats to file.. I'd like to hear from someone that has more information and experience though..

Jeppesen Navsuite has all that.

For you guys using the efb's, what kind of transition is it? Specifically, say a company like ours with 22 pilots, all at various geek levels, what kind of program is required for the learning? Does it change recurrent/sim training at all?

I love my anywheremap setup! all the gadgets 2 systms for 10g's. I would get different tablets the next time around I have a LS800 and LS1600. The 800 runs hot w/bluetooth and The 1600 is a little big for our Beechjet . The cost of the PC's is the only detour so those price conscious pilots, find a descent tablet @ bestbuy. I also toggle back and forth W/ flightdeck when I leave the US. Works great but flightdeck sucks.

check out www.flightdeck.aero I've used their SkyTab 1300 and it it's a great unit! I have also heard they are releasing a unit the beginning of next year that has a 1.8 ghz processor and an LED lit screen!
