I have a wifi only iPad. Did some recon at Osh. Like the Bad Elf GPS unit that plugs into the iPad. Recently signed up for Foreflight now that they have Canadian charts (yay! finally!).
Frustrating part is that I'm running an iPad mini, with the new Lightening connector, and Bad Elf is only selling their old unit with the 30 pin connector. At Osh, the vendor had the new model (saw it... know it exists), and said it was ready to go... just awaiting Apple approval so they could market it. But alas, still not available to buy.
I don't want to buy the old connector and run it through Apple's adapter (though I know that works).
I don't want to buy the bluetooth model. Don't want another thing to manage batteries for and have no need for the LCD display.
So two questions for the VAF brain trust... any insight on the release of the new Bad Elf, and/or is there another option that hooks up with the new Apple connection?
