If not, seems like a cool idea for a developer type in need of an idea. I know where you could sell one copy. :)

I don't know the answer to your question, but that is one SWEEEET loking watch.

That is all.

That's exactly what I thought. But after looking at it for a minute, it occurred to me the fuctions offered by it were not all that dissimilar from apps like City Time and/or WorldMate. A quick buzz thru Handango suggests there's no s/w equivalent at the present...or my search skills need improvement.

I know of one app that's close (if you're looking for set/rise times and such). It's called Ephemeris and was written by Jonathan Sachs. He has some great freeware apps for photographers.

I've been running Ephemeris since I got my Pocket PC and love it. It's a great way to see how short the days are right now... thank goodness they are getting longer.

It lacks the graphical display of the watch, but provides all the info I was looking for.......and then some. I think this will come in very handy!

Thanks!

You might want to look at TodayPlus. It has a weather section that includes sunrise, sunset, moon phases, barometric pressure, etc.
