How is this one different? More airlines? The tiny screenshot looked pretty much the same as the *A version.

Any different features besides the airline list?

There's a tool for the NYC/NJ airports here:
http://tracker.flightview.com/htNYNJ...RY&airport=EWR
One of its nifty features is the ability to list all traffic to/from an airport. A link to this for EWR is here:
http://tracker.flightview.com/htNYNJ...Map.asp?ap=EWR

It is based on a more generic tool that shows individual flights *or* traffic for a particular airport *or* all traffic:

RLM software
 
I use rlmsoftware for tracking flights in real time. Seems to work much better than the airline sights, but indeed doesn't offer all flights and many areas.

Screen saver

One minor issue - I would like to see the map when I'm using the PC rather than when I'm not... :) When the screensaver comes on, only my chair gets to see it...

You are right. Its cool but as soon as I touch it, its gone.

Anyone know anything else that is interactive?

Thanks

It's not a screensaver but you do have a flight tracker built into OS X in Sherlock

Put in your destination/arrival airports and airlines and you'll get detailed flight info including a chart of where the flight is
