Meade ETX computerized telescope connection:

"I wish that there was a way to use my Pilot as a control panel for my Meade ETX computerized scope. It would need to be able to be used to log an astronomical viewing session also. Maybe even have a star charting program like Star Pilot or Star Chart be synced to the telescope. That way you could pick an object to view on the pilot and the scope would go to it."

PPP without RAS:

"I would like be able to access my LAN directly from the Palm Pilot without having to use a RAS-service on the PC (as the case with DirectLink)."

GPS Unit:

"I would love a GPS unit that attaches like a modem or a navigator, especially if it could synchronize with maps. The Tripmate GPS is too inconvenient for use with a pilot."
