Yeah, it pays the same, but now you're under the gun to block out on time, and don't compromise safety. Oh, and when you get airborne, I hope you can figure out how to make those enroute charts useful.
I got to use the Jepp EFB last week in the airplane for the first time.
In a word -- Unsatisfactory.

The Jepp EFB, specifically the plan route function, is beyond ridiculous. Loading a long flight is a chore that should pay override.
Worse than the actual product is the way it has been introduced for use here. "OK, this will be great! Do a quick LMS and we'll give you a 'quick start' guide (that is pages and pages long) just to be extra safe."
A less than stellar product just kind of thrown out there for use.
I can tell you that the very experienced captain and I were much less situationally aware on our short legs through Europe because neither of us had the time to figure out all the details of loading the route.
