where is the Suunto equivalent???

[cue03]

Timex has a new watch with a built in gps by Garmin. It is used mostly for like cross country runners and different sports like that but can be used for top speed check for most anything that is moving. It has a lot of functions including avg speed, top speed, pace. etc. Here is the link Timex website . Go to where it says speed and distance.

I guess suunto is not on the map with this one.

Suunto if you are listening, make a similiar unit that includes all the features of the Timex plus:

+add more than one odometer
+smaller gps (that is waterproof) or maybe even a single watch setup
+make the entire unit suitable for swimmers/jetskiers/kayakers etc.
+add heart rate monitor
+add recharable batteries to the gps unit.
+altimieter
+tempurature
+compass
+maybe if we are lucky you can add your location coordinates as well.

That should do it. I am positive that the Suunto equivalent will look way better than the Timex.

	Compass Compasses are sensitive, absolutely crucial instruments to precision navigation. The earth's magnetic field, inclination, and your longitude and latitude all influence the horizontal plane of a compass needle. As a result, compasses are balanced for different geographical zones. Suunto Compasses overcome this limitation to traditional compasses by using a simple 'Two Zone System'. With a Suunto Compass, the only 'balancing zones' are the northern and southern hemispheres. In addition to this innovation, certain Suunto Compasses come equipped with useful features like luminous needles and marks, centimeter/inch scales, magnifying glasses, clinometers, sighting notches, and more.

I'll leave this up and hope that Suunto OY, R&D sees it. Thanks.
