Anyone have any input on my advanced parole question? Is it wise to travel with it before recieving a green card?

The AP's purpose is to allow re-entry to the US while having a pending I-485 - so it is OK - you just don't want to miss any appointments, if any, while outside the US (i.e., the interview).

Not always, according to what I've read on here in the past. If you have an overstay, you do not want to leave the US until your greencard is APPROVED and your overstay "forgiven". You may not be let back in and even incur a ban because of the overstay, even with the AP in hand.

This thread is similar to yours, it deals with travelling before greencard: http://www.visajourney.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=190887

I received my EAD and my AP at the same time, exactly 1 week after it was approved. The AP is very clear: it is not a guaranteed pre-approval for entry. I would only use it for emergencies. I'd recommend you visit Hawaii for a vacation, stay in the US it's safer!
