iFly GPS Forum

Jim,

Yes, the iFly 720 browser will access other sites and let you log in to sites like Vansairforce, etc. I will tell you it is a "Mini" or "Mobile" style browser so it is not going to be as robust as the iPad "Safari" web browser. Will it typically do what you want? Yes. Will there be some frustration along the way when browsing? Yes. Keep in mind it is a Aviation GPS first and foremost.

Finally, yes it will allow you to save some favorites or quick access sites in a tile manner on the start up page. I think Google, BBC and another is defualted. I hope this helps.

Jim, You might want to take Shane's comment about the iFly being primarily an aviation product a bit more to heart. His suggestion that it will be frustrating to use as a browser may be a bit understated. I would sooner use my iPhone to browse the web than I would my iFly 720. If you can find someone with a 720 near you, try it out as a browser before you plunk your money down with any intention of using it to browse the web. I'm not knocking the unit - its nice in the air and its a good value. But the browser feature is more in the category of - it possible to do it as a last resort. The 720 really isn't a substitute for an iPad or a computer and conversely, the iPad isn't a substitute for the 720.
