The eRM was/is data base driven, thats why you could do things like an attribute look up with a click, or SID/STARs tailored by runway instead of every possible option and txt on one pdf page. Jepp goes digital in 2018, we were there 8 yrs ago with Lido. The jepp human interface is horrible. The fact most of us cannot even load a route, search an MEL issue, and use the external keyboard are minor issues when you consider things like digital NOTAMs, interactive ADS-B moving maps, and other digital enhancements have ZERO growth for us in the near future. Combine all this with Jepp being a much more expensive product and we can only hope they listen to the customers complaints. Time will tell.
