[amsat-bb] Re: RE - iPod tracking software.

[Dennis Griffin]

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.

Hi all,
Please accept my sincere apologies regarding my posting on the  Pocketsat3  
tracking software for the
iPod.
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.
