Hi There, I travel around the World at least once month from Wellington, New Zealand and am constantly prone to delayed or cancelled flights and my business contacts and family are constantly trying to understand when I am landing so that they can reach me. I have therefore created an iPhone and iPad application that gives live departures and arrivals information for any flights at any given airport around the World. You can find an overview of the application at http://www.3dot5.net/blog/world-flights/. I have also created a USA specific application for live flight tracking for any flights in the US, from the US or US bound. Every single US airport is represented ;) http://www.3dot5.net/blog/airports-live/ There is also a draw to win an ipad everytime a milestone of 10,000 download of the iPhone version is reached on the AppStore, more information can be found on: http://www.3dot5.net/blog/win-an-ipad-with-world-flights/ And a draw to win an iPhone 4 everytime a milestone of 10,000 download of the iPad version is reached on the AppStore, more information can be found on: http://www.3dot5.net/blog/win-an-iphone-4/ And for the Rugby fans, check out Rugby 2011 for a complete guide to the World Cup in New Zealand including live scores and rankings and while we wait 6 nations and Super 15 scores and rankings ;) http://www.3dot5.net/blog/rugby-2011-the-ultimate-rugby-world-cup-guide/ Cheers, Patrice
