TideTool for PalmOS

Postby radar on Fri Dec 08, 2006 3:45 pm

Hi,

I've been gathering a few photography tools for my Palm. I can have them with me. I found DOFmaster that gives me hyperfocal distance.

I was also looking for a tool that gives me sun/moon rise/set and tides. I found that tool in Tide Tool for the Palm.

Now I can easily check what time that sunset is and be sure that I'm there in plenty of time. Sorry to all those PocketPC fans, this is only for PalmOS. There is version called Xtide that runs on *nix/Mac OS X/Windows(cygwin). Now I don't have to turn on my computer to check the sunrise/sunset times.

HTH,

André

A wonderful tool, I used it for years when I was sailing, but since the upgrade to a pocket PC phone I have had to go back to looking at the computer. :(

I've got a camera, it's black. I've got some lens, they are black as well.

I think the compass is for where the sun sets - and moon rises.... =)
