Ekitan just released 駅探ガジェット or Station searching Gadget (widget) for Windows Vista’s Sidebar. With this widget you can search, route and list timetables and prices all through Tokyo and the rest of Japan. This can be an extremly helpful application if you’re riding through Tokyo and need to know how much it costs to ride and transfer from Ueno to Ikebukuro for example. Watch a demo on their site and download the widget here.
