The GPS which comes with the iPad is not "aviation grade". I also bought
the Bad-elf chip and my Foreflight app runs much better and more accurately.

I too recommend the iPad, however, I run ForeFlight on my iPhone as well and
with the GPS it works wonderfully. Very nice in a small cockpit.
BTW, if you have an iPad without 3G and GPS be sure and take a look at
Bad-elf.com. They have a chip which adds GPS to the iPad.

it. Check out all the features on their website.

My mobile is coming to the end of its life so I am looking for a new one.
Can anyone give recommendations especially with flying apps availability.
Thanks
