Check flight status in real time from your Treo

Sometimes the simplest applications make us smile.  Around here, we're generally not too fond of funky interfaces or whiz-bang graphics on every piece of software.  That is especially the case for PDA applications.  Take, for example, this wonderfully made donationware application called Flight Status.  Developed by some high school kid (Andrew), Flight Status fills a great gap on the Treo platform for the mobile professional.  You punch in your flight number and airline, and it sends you back real time flight status.  Don't remember the flight number?  No probs, just select the airline, departure and arrival airports, and it'll get the rest.  Simply said, it works.  Andrew has done a great job in designing a simple GUI, but we are wondering one thing:  When did a high school kid start thinking about mobile professionals?  Thanks to Eric Mack for the link.
