Hi Matt,

The difference (if I understand correctly) is that NAVAirWx actually 
integrates WxWorx information with the flight planning (NAVAir) software. On 
my tablet PC I can run either WxWorx software OR Jeppeson FlightMap but I 
can't use them together (and, BTW, they will not share a USB gps input 
either). In other words, I can't overlay the weather on the moving map. Not a 
huge deal but it does indicate to me that the WxWorx people are not just 
sitting on their hands. It appears that they are continuing to develop the 
product and trying to make it compatible with other software. I'm hoping we 
will see it on MX-20's and integrated into a handheld gps in the near future 
(Garmin 296 perhaps ???) . I'll be looking at AirGator at SNF in April. I'm 
very curious to see if a PDA has the processing power to handle the WxWorx 
data at a comfortable pace. Screen redraws on my 1.3 GHz tablet are already 
somewhat less than snappy. Does anyone on the mail list have any experience 
using WxWorx on a PDA? If so, how well does it work?
