Count me in.
I've allready build one system with an Epia 5000 as a basis, and it all works fine. No need to worry about Hi-G's since my system dosen't have a HD but runs OS and apps from an CF card. Many thanks to SFiorito for doing the writeup about how to make that magic happen

Ofcourse the biggest obstacle is LCD visibility, espesially in direct sunlight and I guess we all are longing for an cheap and easy solution... The numerous LCD enhancements threads have been monitored closely, but they all seems to involve mechanics quite close to rocket sience

As for navigation software I have choosen to use SOB which uses vectorized charts from C-map, and it has a fairly good implementation of other sources than GPS. (Radar, Sonar, AIS, temp etc, etc.)


Best regards, Ketil.
