If your smart phone is an android, I do recommend Google Sky Maps. Pretty cool technology, and it's free. /R --- On Sun, 12/18/11, Chuck Hards <chuck.hards@gmail.com> wrote:
From: Chuck Hards <chuck.hards@gmail.com> Subject: [Utah-astronomy] smart phone apology To: "Utah Astronomy" <utah-astronomy@mailman.xmission.com> Date: Sunday, December 18, 2011, 5:27 PM I've made several post now, using my company-issued smartphone.
Please accept my apology if I haven't edited my replies sufficiently.
I can barely see the screen, and I have much to learn as far as editing replies. Enlarging the text on-screen only serves to cut-off info that one has to then scroll around to find. All-in-all, a very unsatisfying, and trying experience.
I have a new appreciation for my 24" home monitor.
For the record, I still haven't found a single app that I find useful. Haven't downloaded anything yet.
And talking to a friend who has been into astronomy for the past ten years or so, it seems that many people pay for stuff that they just consider "cool", rather than usefull. It's your money, folks.
