Well except for the WiFi, it does not seem to do much more for me than the 
TRX-1000 I already have several years, for about the same price. Also, it 
appears bigger and my favorite app is not among those listed on their 
Kickstarter page. (And adding WiFi to the TRX would only be about €25 by just 
buying a standard WiFi module online, and half an hour soldering a cable for 
it, should need be.) 

How good is the live ADS-B weather actually? Is it worth the effort (for a 
glider pilot, that is)?
