Astro Info
Astro Info is an open-source astronomical ephemeris/almanac for PalmOS. It displays some basic information useful to star gazers, such as rise, trans and set times, coordinates, magnitude and phase information for Sun, Moon, the other 8 planets and stars. It also features a rotatable and zoomable map.
Requirements
Astro Info requires at least PalmOS 3.0. It also works with PalmOS 5.0. The latest version also supports high-resolution displays of PalmOS 5 devices.
Where can I get it?
You can download it from the AstroInfo Download page. It is available in source or binary format.
Next Steps
