You get them for Desktops all the time. All you'd need is a small program to update and phrase the info once every half hour or so.. and you could use the GPS to input local info (location and height). There are probably programs like this out already but don't think any of them use the localisation abilities of GPS phones...

So if it’s hot and sweaty in your pocket, that means… rain? :D

I think that one of the major motivators behind all this eagerness to open up and share is - drum roll, please - the Internet, which has driven down the costs of distributing software and collecting feedback. If you can have feedback from a large pool of customers, why not give it a try? Hi
