I have a pocket PC, I found a programme called Pocket Stars. Has anyone heard of or using this? Or know if there are any others available for Pocket PC?

I find a laptop distracting and cumbersome to use under the stars. I like a planisphere and good ole fashioned charts. They are much easier to handle, and you can always rotate and orient them whichever way you need to.

BTW, even with a nightvision colour scheme most laptop screens will emit too much light for dark skies.
