Cool, Jeff. Sounds like a neat program...

Looks cool. The only astronomy app I have on my phone is Planets and thats pretty limited to only....ummmm...planets. (And the moon and sun). But it has pointed out Jupiter to me last summer and Mars this early winter. This app could point out those as well as the other bits of magical lights pinholed in the giant curtain of night! :D

I have this app as well as Distant Suns. Both are excellent.

On a tangential note, I wonder how many apps like this will be updated to run in the iPad's native resolution. I have a lot of reservations about that device, but if/when mapping apps (such as Star Walk, Distant Suns, CoPilot, Topo Maps, Google Earth) run in XGA, I'll get one.

Congrats to all three of you, winners all! ;)

[Deslock]

Got my code...installed....AAAAAAAWESOME! Hold the phone up to the sky and the stars are right where they're supposed to be. If you have a 3Gs and into astronomy....this is a cool app!

Thanks again for the contest and the app!
