qole, thats almost an app idea.

it could just be used for AR to hold up the device to where you are looking and have it annotate the star names in the centre of the view.

fix it onto the side of a telescope and display detailed info on the focused area.

Jupiter
1. Position in the solar system: 5th planet from the sun
2. Closest distance to the sun: Perihelion is 740,500,000 km (460,000,000 miles)
3. Farthest distance from the sun: Aphelion is 816,600,000 km (507,000,000 miles)
4. Minimum distance to Earth: 588,400,000 km (366,000,000 miles)
5. Jovian day: 9.926 hours
6. Jovian year: 11.86 Earth years
7. Axis tilt: 3.13°
8. Orbital Inclination to ecliptic: 1.305°

Here's my contribution:

The Nokia N900...Nokia's premier phone, and revolutionary device--is it a computer or phone or is it something Nokia can't quite come out and say when it's gonna be released...

I'm on it! I have done some work to put a fingerfriendly UI to Stellarium, but at least in scratchbox it is painfully slow, so I'm waiting for my N900 before i put more work in that..

N900 - It is more than just a phone, It is a tablet. It is one size fit all.

My suggestion is an ad campaign with slogans highlighting the different aspects of the N900. Something along the lines of:

N900 - Communication Reinvented
N900 - Computer Reinvented
N900 - Phone Reinvented
N900 - Online Reinvented
N900 - Multimedia Reinvented
and so on

My personal favourite is however this epic slogan:
