So the biggest challenge with the iPhone is coming up with an idea. I am not one for building computer games so until I come across a need that fits the iphone or an idea for some application the platform does not hold a lot of appeal at present.

Since wind direction is as important as speed I assume you'd have to stand there for several hours (gently rotating in the breeze) to get meaningfull information :-}
