I have used PocketSat+ on Palm devices for years and have been very pleased with it. It has helped me have many visual ISS, occasional Shuttle sightings and listen in on some school contacts. I installed GoSatWatch on my iPhone shortly after it came out and have been pleased with it as well. Since I have $9.95 invested in GoSatWatch and since it is highly unlikely that Jim Berry will be able to offer a crossgrade discount for PocketSat 3, due to the App Store constraints, I'll continue to use PocketSat+ on my Palm TX & GoSatWatch on my 3gs, although I expect PocketSat would run appreciably better on the iPhone than the Palm. If he offers a special price, I would say go for it.

iPod/iPhone owners should just go to the app store and search for satellite tracker and you'll find several ranging from free to $9.99. I've been playing around with the free one and it seems to give good data for individual satellites, but the $1.99 version of the same has reviews bad enough for me not to even consider it, although it has more features that I could use. But there are others that seem pretty good and worth their price.

I have been contacted to advise that unlike the PDA software there is NOT an unregistered version that can be downloaded. Not having an iPod I had not tried to follow up any down load etc and was therefore unaware of the need to get it via an iTunes store without a trial !!!!! Sorry for my ignorance and error in the posting of the information. Ken Eaton GW1FKY Amsat - UK Amsat NA _______________________________________________ Sent via AMSAT-BB@amsat.org.
