Gmote vs Moon Phase
Side-by-side comparison of two open source alternatives
Gmote
Gmote turns Android into a remote control for a computer, allowing users to run movies and music at a distance. It supports all of the standard remote control features such as play, pause, rewind, volume controls etc. It also has a built-in file browser that lets you select what to play. Some typical use-cases are people launching and controlling movies while sitting back on their couch, or listening to music. It also has a touch pad feature which allows you to control your mouse from the phone, similar to a laptop touchpad (also sending keystrokes typed in on the phone to the computer). It's great for sitting back on the couch while watching youtube or hulu. Status: Version 2.0.7 elsewhere exists but there isn't any source
Moon Phase
Shows the real time view of the Moon, providing information about the current moon phase. This code has been originally belonged to the set of "shallow sky" astronomy applets, developed by Akkana Peck as long ago as in 1996 to run on Sharp Zaurus PDA.
