Droid for filing
I too love this Android Google phone and would like to file flight plans and get weather briefings on it. Yes, I know I can do it on the WWW. But who wants to carry a laptop or find a computer. That's old. The new way is on pocket sized smart device.
Nex Monster and ForeFlight have good apps for the iPhone, but I haven't seen one yet for the Android. Please post if you do.
thanks

There are a bunch of droids as there are many use cases and price points.
You did not indicate any of them. Hard to help you.

Android App
There is a nice free weather/radar one called Aviation Weather located HERE or on the appmarket. There's a couple by that name out there, but I use the one by Appventive on my Nexus One.
Cheers

A plug for Weathermeister. I use it on my EVO for weather and filing flight plans. Simple and effective.

Well Kahuna, if I knew all the uses, etc I wouldn't need to ask about models. I'm basically asking for some advice from some of you using an Android device about which makes and models work for you. I'll look at price when I have some advice on which models are the most useful.
