The Garmin 405 GPS watch with heart rate monitor.
It tracks your training runs and allows you to pace against yourself (on prior runs over the same course).
Plus...for years I have wanted to map my life. I think it would be cool to have a map with dotted lines showing your travels during your stay here on Earth.
In short, very cool. :-)
And very expensive. :-(

The older I get the more expensive the toys get.

Hypothetically, this one is $152.87 after rebate.
okay, that link didn't work. Just eBay search for Forerunner 305.
The 305 gets you most of the way there. The 405 just adds the heart rate monitor.
Maybe if I save my pennies I can get the 305 and then once I have proved my worth I can upgrade to the 405.
I tried this thing on over my lunch break today at REI. It is enormous!
I like the concept but the form factor needs to come down by a factor of 2 or 3 before it is practical for everyday use.
I want something I can wear all the time. This thing is so big you have to power it down when not in use.
Me gotee
