Unfortunately, I heard "one of us" report last week that "PocketSat

It works marvelously on my new 32GB iPod touch. AMSAT's keps are one

There are several "satellite trackers" in the Apple Store ... from  
free to $.099 to a few bucks. I have tried five others. NONE of them  
come close to the feature set, ease of use, and product support that  
one receives with PocketSat3.
