Doubt any implementaion in early 2013. They are not yet required, but if carried, must be up to date. FAA violation if they are not. Just like using a set of Jepps out of date.

Now, UAL IT has not been capable of installing wireless networks with enough band width to connect more than 2 iPads at once, without the wireless completely locking up. SFO is a joke. Don't know about anywhere else, but doubt it is much better.

Heck, the new Sabre flight planning system, a thing we have to use to fly, won't even work on half the computers in any flt ops. My guess is to avoid a complete meltdown, iPad problems won't be addressed for a long time.
