Oh yea, it does. Surprised they don't make a bigger deal of that. $399 for a color moving map GPS with airport information including approach plates. A really good deal or too good to be true?

I do not have a Kindle but was told that it can only download from Amazon (hence the application from a 3rd party supplier as noted earlier in this thread).

I just want a batch download where I'm ready for anywhere.

From what I've read, the Kindle's do NOT. But the Sony E-Readers do. I've downloaded the PDF charts to a laptop, and the free Adobe PDF viewing software you run on a PC does support PDF indexes.
