A sun shade would be nice. Sure we could all make our own, but something custom fitted would be better. I've found that using the unit in the Arizona sun makes it very difficult to see when the sun shines directly on the screen. The glare off the screen is rather high too. (reflection of clothing) I don't know if it's possible for their to be a low reflectivity screen overlay.

Update on daylight readability. Today was the first day with really bright sun under which I could fly with my iFly. It is okay and may be better than my previous PDA GPSs. A sunshade is a great idea.

I will look into this. If anyone has suggestions on a company that could provide/build a sunshade attachment, or a glair overlay, please post on this thread.

OK, here You go!

From what research I've done so far, I believe these people have the superior product. I was going to get the closest size that would fit and trim it accordingly myself. It would be nice if one were available in the correct size already though.

Thanks Dave. We've had a few owners purchase their product now; I'm awaiting feedback to see how well it works. I'm purchasing one myself as well.
