Clint:
I am probably the one you are talking about. There appears to be a misunderstanding. What I was trying to say was that with the palm having been end of lifed by the Palm folks in terms of the PalmOS that other solutions would have to be sought. Since I seem to be one of the few that doesnt have an iPhone, I hadnt had the reason to look for that type of solution and had moved to a netbook as the next best option that I was able to find.

It works marvelously on my new 32GB iPod touch. AMSAT's keps are one of the four default sets for painless download. Recently added is a "View Constellation" mode - which overlays your view of the heavens on a sat pass.
There are several "satellite trackers" in the Apple Store ... from free to $.099 to a few bucks. I have tried five others. NONE of them come close to the feature set, ease of use, and product support that one receives with PocketSat3.
