Best Travel App so far

I saw on TechCrunch a post about a new travel itinerary management app called TripTracker.  It is like Tripit in that it tracks and keeps your itineraries but it solves a huge problem I had with Tripit, my itineraries change 30-40% of the time.  When you have a itinerary change with Tripit you have to manually update it. With TripTracker it is getting the info directly from the airlines so if a flight moves it knows and synchs it.

This is huge and there is just so much that they will be able to do with this data.  If they are successful in building the customer base and defending against competitors like Tripit from too quickly adding this feature then they might be able to have the same success in travel that Mint had with a similar product in finance.
