The current (February) issue of Orion, the magazine of the Swiss
Astronomical Society, includes nice CCD images of geostationary
satellites obtained by Stefano Sposetti. These include superpositions of
many frames which show the motion of these objects over several hours.

See also the society's Astroinfo WWW site at:
           http://www.astroinfo.ch/satellit/obsgeo.html
and
           http://www.astroinfo.ch/aida/sposetti
which have MPEG movies too (though some of the links appeared to be
broken when I checked this evening).
