I don't know about that owl, but *I'm* going to. I have a freebie compass app on my iPhone 3Gs. It's called (believe it or not) "Compass". I've typically only used it in locations where I had no idea

The iPhone uses an AKM AK8973 3 axis sensor It's roughly an 8 bit device (it's a bit tricky, because you can set offset and gain for the raw sensor, and it needs temperature compensation)... So, roug
