I've read, over several threads people complaining/suggesting about the galaxy/system maps, route plotting etc.
I understand many of the requests would be detrimental to game play due to load times and other reasons so maybe you could develop a smart app that could encompass many of these requests.
Imagine, flying across the galaxy with a tablet by your side showing the galaxy map with a Google map style route plotted by you. For example: explorers could plot a route to insure they visited enough scoopable stars to continue their expedition, traders could plot detailed trade routes, then just have the app open at your side to check your next stop, then turn to your nav panel and select the correct star, then flik a tab to view an orrery view of that system to help plot our stops, info could be loaded direct from the ed servers.
You'll have to forgive my clumsy descriptions but I believe an app such as this could benefit all players across platforms
