I use an Ipad (3g with onboard GPS)with airnav pro for WA. Have the meeka, kalgoorlie, wiluna and perth WAC's and the perth VTC.

Fantastic for situational awareness, and the ability to look at various strips along the route and get physical characteristics of the possible landing sites being overflown. Gives length, width and surface type and runway heading as well as CTAF and area frequencies.

A huge number of other tools available. Compares well with aircraft GPS derived data. Personlly, I find it much better than Oz runways.

PM me if you want to have a look at it.
