Interested to hear feedback as it looks REALLY good.. I am sceptical that it will be able to do everything it says.. After all, it must have to have a compass to know which way you are pointing and my experiences with 'electronic' compasses have been mixed.
The reason I am fascinated by this is that when I was a boy my step dad 'made' me something similar.. It was a tin can, probably beans (or it might have been soup) lined with black paper and it had holes punch out of the bottom.. I had a selection.. One for "Orion".. The other for "The Plough". The theory was that in daylight, I could hold it up to the sky and 'see' the stars.. Even at that age I know it was s**t, but my Dad thought it was a good idea.
I am just amazed how things have changed.. OK that was more than 30 years ago.. But back then, we had tin cans with holes in.. Now we have GPS.. LCD displays.. Buttons.. Commentary.. You just wouldn't have imagined that such things were possible back then!
