Playing with the Jepp viewer and noticed that there is a "wx" button along the side. Pushed it and the latest metar (4 mins old) and the taf appeared in a small window. Raw or decoded. And it's handy to be able to magnify and move the plate around with the usual gestures. Much better than the efb at this time. Not sure how it could be attached to something in cockpit for easy, hands free viewing.

Sounds like a lot of us will be carrying two iPads around.

I just made my iPad Retina a hand me down to a family member and got an iPad mini.
Now the best of both worlds awaits.
Full sized iPad from the company, and a personal mini.
