no kidding. The new process is you get issued a new iPad and they have you logon to AW, Jepp App, and WSI... takes a few minutes. All the downloads can be done sitting on your kitchen island or on your hotel desk. You get to hold onto your old iPad until your satisfied with the downloads being completed... so if not done before step time then take both. And before anyone asks... you get no ADD PAY for carrying two iPads on a trip.

Delta board. Full access to app store, 22GB cell data before it throttles back.
Somehow, I got sent one. It's pretty much what you'd expect an IPAD to be and if you already knew apple IOS, the learning curve will be very shallow, much more in common than different.
Heres a hint:
With the new Jepp FD-Pro upgrade on the surface, you get to see exactly what the IPAD wil be, pretty much exactly the same except works very fast, way less "glitches" that I have noticed. GPS works, and ATT Cell service for when not in wifi areas.
It works great and switches between plates without any delay, follows along your flight patch, brings up notes along your route that are pertinent, like FIR boundaries and terrain boxes. Taxi chart automatically comes up on landing and ships position displays on chart to follow along with your taxi, what a boon to ground SA!
The biggest changes is a pretty different layout of the content locker, but supposedly a new content locker is in the works to be even better in the near future, but probably after the IPAD rollout according to the training.
IPAD will be unlocked too, so you can put your personal Apps on the IPAD and use it as your sole device. My prediction: Pilots are going to love it, even the complainers!
