Illegible
I really hope the Aware will be more easily readable than their web site.
The white on orange is bad enough but the order form of black on dark blue is unreadable on my PC .
Perhaps it's an artefact of my PC,anyone else find it difficult to read?

Agree with other posters - the site colour scheme is a dog's breakfast. There are many guides available to web designers to help with clarity and legibility - they seem to have all been ignored by whoever "designed" that website.

You're right.
That is not simply a Pants colour scheme, that is a Marks & Spencer Pants colour scheme.
I'm sure I heard my monitor give an audible 'twang' trying to render that CSS abomination into pixels.

Wait for the beta version to be tested
This is a great idea with the automatic warnings,and would apparently give a 'radio altimeter' facility.
I remember that the early vehicle GPS had altitude readout,accurate to a few feet,but for some reason this is absent from present in car navaids.
The price is very good value compared with such as the Aera 500 at £619.95.
We can only expect that the Aware unit will be better than the website,but I will let you do the beta testing,I'll wait for the MK II .
Meanwhile I'll carry on sneaking the Garmin in car GPS into my headphone bag and hope the whizzwheel police don't catch me.

e-mailed Aware, got a reply that they have changed the website,amazing although connected to CAA they have done the sensible thing right away!
Also I have suggested they might consider putting a few beta test units out foc or/and a sale or return deal.
Don't hold your breath.

Sorry, am I missing something? £149 for a satnav sized moving map GPS with CAA charts and free updates - is this not the bargain of the century and about to shake up the pilot GPS market enormously? If so I can't believe you're not all talking about it.
I guess I better not post a link here. The product is called "aware" - see the article on pilot magazine's web page for the link.
