8-27-10, Has any progress been made on the WIFI option? Or the 100LL option. There are other "pubic" computers available but nothing as convient as a WIFI connection to update the metars ,TFR's, etc when away from my home computer. FBO computers are mostly not available to "borrow" for an update. Also has there been any further thought to adding the 100LL site to the unit. dp

Walter: Back in Sep 10, the subject of WIFI was last discussed, best I could tell. Any update on addingg WIFI? Dan

I am also turning blue, wanting the WIFI feature. But let us be fair! Implementing something like that will likely take an enormous amount of work as a menu for connection options will be needed, possible encryption options, and obviously, a browser. Everything is available on the market, but the integration will be a handful.

I have a WIFI dongle as well as a USB memory stick connected to my iFly, just hanging around, waiting for something to do! Walter will get there, but it might be a long road. Meantime, I carry a laptop with me and use it to get updates at various airports, transfer that to the memory stick, plug the memory stick into the iFly. Not sanitary, but 100% functional.
