Watch the Sky with your Nintendo DS.

The Japanese magazine "Hoshi Navi" (published by Astro Arts) has just announced that this summer they will release "Starry Sky Navi": a stars observation software for Nintendo DS. The card will have a built in tilt sensor so that it will be easier to locate planets and stars and identify constellations. Both occasional or passionate stargazers and serious amateur astronomers will consider this card like a dream come true (no more laptops to carry with your telescope to run tracking programs).
In addition, there is a build in astronomical encyclopedia and it's possible to change time or place to simulate different sky views (like for example next year's solar eclipse in Hawaii).
A playable version for this software will be exhibited during the Photoimaging Expo that will be held in the Tokyo Big Sight from 19 to 22 march. I'm sure this will be a pretty popular card among Japanese boys who want to get the chance to watch the sky with a nice girl...
