I have a G1, which also runs Android. (I also work at a shop that does smartphone programming.) Palm is a very different programming environment from Windows Mobile, and both are quite different from Android, although both WM and Android are Java based, they won't run each other's programs. > 2) Are there any satellite tracking apps specifically made to run on > the Android? Not yet. None that I'm aware of, anyway. It's on my list, but someone else will probably get to it before I do. That's what usually happens. _______________________________________________ Sent via amsat...@amsat.org. Opinions expressed are those of the author. Not an AMSAT-NA member?
