In my blank message this morning (sent from webmail, which may have been 
HTML and therefore blank), what I said was that the iFly 720 is indeed a 
very intuitive device, and is daylight readable already, even in a KR.

The day before flying to Sun n Fun, I tried for half an hour to enter 
the coordinates for Lake Parker into the iEFIS, and finally gave up. 
Even the next morning with the manual in hand, I just couldn't get 
there.  I gave up on the iEFIS and tried the iFLY mounted next to it. 
With no iFLY manual I had the coordinates entered into the 720 in under 
a minute.  Then when it was displayed, I realized it was actually a 
sectional waypoint, and could likely be added to the route by simply 
touching it and choosing something like "add to route".

As others have chimed in, with 20/20 hindsight I'd buy an iPad and put 
the iFLY app on it, and could also have Foreflight and ADS-B on it, 
among others.
