David,

Want to thank you for HamSatDroid.  It is a fine application and I use it alot.  
Thanks for your continued work on this.  Adding eliptical orbits was 
outstanding.

Hi,

We've targeted the small form factor of the rather a tablet, at the moment.
If there is enough interest we will make it multi-platform.

Yes, the next release (0.9) will have landscape capability, orientation
changed using the sensors. Again, targeted at phone use.

We've had a few people mention the Kindle Fire and the B&N tablet (sorry we
don't have it in the UK) and the use of side-loading the app. There are
some limitations with these devices as they do not have the richer features
of other Android tablets and we will have to make some changes to
accommodate them.

Many thanks to all for the feedback, keep it coming.
