Hi all,
Wonder if Fugawi will go with the flow and allow those of us who have already bought iNavx charts for iPhone/iTouch to have a second copy for the iFad (sorry! ) Or at least to have a second go at a reasonable price? Maybe Navionics too? I
would have thought it would have been slick to have a dock for an iPhone/touch incorporated into this tablet.Note the 3G higher spec only does data and so is not a phone.
Hopefully marine users will be on a winner here at last as the screen resolution and size should rival most plotters.
thinks:
The Morris Oxford post-ww11 was a large Morris Minor.The Minor did most of the things the Oxford did in a smaller package.It did not sell well because of the difficulties in perception of value by customers.
The next re-modelled Morris Oxford is still being being manufactured as the"Hindustan Ambassador" in India.
No doubt iPad will prosper if the apps feel like better value on the "big screen"
If there are too many limitations as to IP functionality and bluetooth restrictions, perhaps it will be hard to replace a macbook, which could be just the point!
Good sailing to all!
