Once the apps get written for this product I can see some real use in the cockpit. So far I've been underwhelmed by what's out there. This may be different. Gonna hold out until April until the better unit is released. Go to www.apple.com and watch the movie about it. pretty cool. Dan

Looks beautiful. But is there a GPS in it or not? What’s a ‘Digital compass’ and ‘Assisted GPS (Wi-Fi + 3G model)’?? (per their Tech Spec)

Me, too. This is a huge winner to me. I always thought if only the
iphone and itouch screens coud be bigger, then you could actually so
much more with it, like actually use your whole hand for touch
interaction, see an entire news web page, chart, etc. etc. They rewrote
those basic apps to take advantage of the entire screen real estate,
instead of hacking it. Yeah, just like with the iphone, it'll be a
matter of time before apps will be available for any purpose.

Garmin just passed out barf bags to their aviation employees…….
I can’t wait for a USB connected XM & GPS antenna combo…
Bye-bye 696’s….
Approach plates, weather, music, movies, GPS, manuals, charts, etc…. We might be getting close to the holy grail….

Digital compass = magnetometer probably enhanced with GPS info
AGPS=GPS that uses wifi or cellular to acquire a faster location lock

The iPad does have BT so who needs a cable. Just because a BT device has batteries, it doesn’t mean you can’t hardwire it to power.

Yep, or just go to Apple's site. The really nice deal is the 250MB of AT&T 3G for 14.99 a month or unlimited for $29. This looks to be the making of a nice little flight bag addition. Although the name absolutely sucks, anyone else see the MadTV skit a couple years back for the iPad. LMAO.

Looks beautiful. But is there a GPS in it or not? What’s a ‘Digital compass’ and ‘Assisted GPS (Wi-Fi + 3G model)’?? (per their Tech Spec)

Once the apps get written for this product I can see some real use in the cockpit. So far I've been underwhelmed by what's out there. This may be different. Gonna hold out until April until the better unit is released. Go to www.apple.com and watch the movie about it. pretty cool. Dan

The low end ones all have that, similar to the iTouch. The high end
ones will also have 3G (data over the cell phone networks), similar to
the iPhone.

I would not write off Garmin just yet. Is someone going to write terrain awareness, HSI, safe taxi, flight plan etc… software for the iPad that will be able to drive an autopilot and integrate with other avionics? The 696 is a stout unit that is hardware specific design for the cockpit. Will it cut into some Garmin sales; sure. Will it kill 696 and Aera sales? No. Plus sales to our certified brothers & sisters. Even though the iPad is ˝ to 1/3 the price of a 696 I have no problem with the 696 pricing and can see having both in the cockpit. I remember spending $3,000 on a steam gauge EGT/CHT display before purchasing probes and having a certified aircraft mechanic install the unit at about $1,000. Now you can buy a 696 AND an iPad for less than that.
Aren’t we lucky to live during the digital revolution and before the end of the world as we know it…

Except it doesn't appear to have a USB port.  (You can get an adapter which gives you one 'tho -- who wants another dongle?)

One question I have -- it has an operating limit of 10,000' altitude. What happens if you go higher than that? (I understand for hard drives, but does this device have any moving parts?)

Wouldn't it be cool to have current approach plates come down the XM signal, or maybe via ADS-B? I have no idea if that's even realistic but it would save a lot of trouble. The 696 takes about an hour to update.
