I agree that they are GREAT! Especially with the onset of the IPhone/Ipod and Ipad, it makes star gazing so much better and fun! Even the simple free ones are decent enough for the beginner to find something of interest, and now with the population on Iphone S versions, you can spin around and know whats there! Pity I don't have an Iphone (ended up with the wife!!!) but I use the Ipod which is good enough for me.
Considering a cheap netbook enough to store my Astro appz and easy to grab n Go. But yes they are affordable appz for the Iphone/Pod/Pad and as Pete mentioned, with the amount spent on equipment, it's a no brainer!
I have StarMap Pro (so I can plan what to do when I get back home if the skies stay good), Messier List (some close ups and info - find it easier to sift thru this than launch StarMap, Moon Globe (so I know what the Big Cheese is up to) Simple Ob log (still use it as it was there before StarMap) and of course Games to tide me whan I wait!! Think the most expensive game I bought was Street Fighter!!! Shoryuken!!!
