I have two Rosen monitors in my plane cabin and other than showing a moving map they are never used.
With my new GoGo Avance install I get an interactive moving map through the GoGo app, so I was researching options to replace the monitors with tablet holders.
Rosen has a pretty elegant tablet holder arm with a built in charger, but it is $4000 (!). That is a little pricey.
AirText has two competing solutions. The first is a dual USB charger at $500. I think I have four of those Rosen Pogo plugs in my cabin, so could be a good option for the last row that doesn't have outlets. Anyone tried these?
The second product is a tablet holder also with dual USB ports for $750, but you have send in your old Rosen screen so they can reuse the arm. I am going to try to find a used screen and give it a try.

12-07-2020, 06:39 PM #2Followup: I bought two old Rosen monitors with Pogo plugs on eBay ($650 each) and shipped them to AirText for the tablet holder conversion ($750 each). They work great and have two USB ports in the base for charging. At $1400 each they are not inexpensive, but a lot better than Rosen's $4000 design.
