Tablet or PDA?
Tablet PC’s have the ability to run ALL of your home PC applications and the most complete EFB software available today. PDA’s are getting better, but memory capacity and limited view capabilities do not allow these machines to compete with the abilities of a tablet PC. Therefore, if you are looking for what the FAA calls an EFB, and uses for their own EFB’s, a tablet is the right equipment for the job.
