64gb iPad 3 (3G version) with Sky Demon. Absolutely brilliant. I get realtime NOTAMS/METARS/TAFS but use AeroWeather Pro (for QNH and cross check weather). No problems with glare, over-heating, loss of GPS signal or anything else. It munches through the battery, so it's plugged into the a/c's aux power socket via a 24v truck cigarette lighter plug thingy. I have a Garmin 430 and a SkyMap in my aircraft but prefer to use the iPad, which sits in a Ram Mount cradle, still with its cover on
