Hi Jouke,
Looks interesting.
Also check out www.stellarium.org/ .
Seanie took us through some of it's features at this week's (ultimate) TAS meeting.
This one's great for us commuters as it's a FREE download that you can use while on the hoof. I must say it's an excellent little package. Attention to detail is v. good. It has a few seasonal/location backgrounds to choose from & even has a red light setting for using while out under the real thing.
Lastly, GraphDark is well know by many here & gives the night sky info. also in clever graphical form. Again a FREE download. (It's creator usually has a stand at Whirlpool.)
