Ditto this recommendation. PocketSat+ is a very usable, compact, yet full featured satellite tracking package. And the Palm is something you can always have with you.
I recently graduated from my Palm-Vx to a Nokia N810, and found the Garnet Virtual Machine, which builds a Palm inside my Nokia. So, I'm still a happy PocketSat+ user (and now it's in color!).

PocketSat freeware or PocketSat+ inexpensive registered and supposed to calculate faster

On any old Palm that you can pick up for $5 at a flea market of get for
free
by asking. Millions of these PDA's are sitting in drawers unused because folks have graduated to smart phones, crack berries iphones etc.
I use a Palm IIIxe black and white. Color would be nicer.
You need Palm One Quick Install and a serial or IR port to update KEPS on the Palm from a PC.

Hi All, I am looking for opinions and idea on a PDA or device and software or application I can take with me to show the satellite pass predictions
when I
travel. Thanks Joe KI4TZ _______________________________________________ Sent via AMSAT-BB@amsat.org. Opinions expressed are those of the author. Not an AMSAT-NA member? Join now to support the amateur satellite

I have also used PocketSat+ but on a Dell PDA. This was the Windows Mobile version of the program. I am a new user of PocketSat3 for the iPhone and it is great as well.
