I never win anything, but this would Soooooo NIce!!!!
<everything crossed>
Count me entered. I am impressed with the visually impressive details of the heavenly bodies in motion like the shadows and sun flares etc. Learning about the constellations will be fun and interesting because of the beauty of this app.
Sign me up for the contest! My fave feature is being able to lift the iPad up to the sky and finding constellations.
Awesome. Gimme some stargazin'
Would be great for my kids!
I am fascinated by the constellations – and would love to take my iPad out at night and use it to gaze up at the heavens and see the pictures the ancients drew in the sky.
I would love that app so I could watch Orion!!!
Cool! I hope i win one :)
My favorite feature is really a combination of the app and interaction with the iPad… being able to touch the sky and find the information I'm interested in is amazing :)
The guys in the Apple store were showing off Starwalk when I bought my iPad. Looks like an awesome app.
I have the iPhone version and love i!
My fav feature is having this great app with a bigger screen.
I've played with it on a friend's iPad. Very nice. I'm partial to the little dipper, myself. Always have been.
that app looks great. would be fun to use with my son.
I am mere hours away from getting my iPad wifi+3g. Winning this would just be awesome!! Another great point on why I should be the winner is because I am moving out of the city and into the country for the summer. This will allow me to actually see stars, no more light pollution, no more seeing Orion's stinky old belt! Time for new stars, new constellations, new perspective into the sky. WInning this app will make that happen!
I just got into astronomy within the past year because of a friend who had an app on his iPhone and it was so easy to use. My iPad arrives today and I would love an app like Star Walk to watch Pleiades.
This looks a really cool app, I was wanting to get something like this for my new iPad so would be ideal.
Cool, would love this.
heard this was awesome. in for one!
I really like to be able to use this for my students to show em where the space station is in orbit!
