Have you used chart plotter software on it? INavX, Garmin, or Navionics?

Do they make waterproof cases?

Cheers,

These tablets, as some of you have found, enable a partial escape from laptops/desktops, power for a long time without tether, and power from 12v boat power after.  I like the near-instant access to the apps, rather than having to reboot.  Quick start, quick asleep.  I use an external microUSB keyboard/case with a laughable price tag.
