The current EFB program is in test mode, which is why you still have to carry the paper version of the manuals.
Once the Ipad is officially approved for CAT I use you will not have to carry your FM1 or AOM 1.
Either way it is really nice to have all the manuals available on the Ipad for quick reference anytime you want.
