    You guys are too good. I had no idea there was so much. I just got Truckers Tool, that's a must.

    I added Copilot Truck to my play wishlist.
    $149.00
    If you went by their advertising, sounds like a awesome app.
    Unfortunately the reviews are lackluster.
    Now if you take both with a grain of salt, might be a good app.
    Wish they had a free trial period.
    149 bucks to take a risk.
    Anybody have this on a Samsung device. Note 2 or S3?

    I don't mind paying for something that does what it's suppose to do. And for $149 I'd hope it would be ad-free.

    And if you try it I hope you will do a product review for it. :biggrin_255:

    Hey Snowy

    Weatherbug is WAY better on a 3.5 inch screen than Accuweather. I'll keep Accuweather on my Nextbook 8" tablet though because it's radar maps are so useful.

    WB gives an excellent, extensive, weather recap and the format seems to be 'lighter' in memory than AW.

    The thing is, what would that app do that the Garmin Dezl doesn't? I just do not want to spend that kind of cash for a program that does the same thing that my GPS does. Dunno. Maybe someone can come by and tell us how they like it.

    Thanks for the input.
    Interestingly enough, I personally don't think I've read the other 6 threads.
    But I did read this one. And picked up a few good apps.
    Thanks to all that had something to actually contribute.
