SunAngle
SunAngle displays data about the Sun's rise time, set time, and its current bearing. By pointing your Palm Pilot at the Sun, this program will tell you which way North is. In addition, it draws pie slices on the compass face showing where the Sun will rise and set that day, during the summer solstice and winter solstice. This could be useful for architects, real estate agents, home buyers (does this balcony get any sun in the winter?), and solar installers.
