A mate of mine has a phone app that uses gps to 'bleep' him every time the space station is about to come over the horizon and and also tells him which direction to look, it works brilliantly. Might be worth looking at this app PB, I'm afraid I don't know what it's called.
One thing to note regarding the SS orbit time is that the earth is spinning at 600mph, so perhaps when the orbit is counter to the earths spin it manages an orbit of 90 minutes point to same point. Maybe.
