I do hope, that Suunto will bring the Mac Version soon to the market, because Polar has nothing, Garmin not the best solution, and all Third-Party-Software do not have the full functionality of Suunto's Training Manager.

If Suunto does not disclose their roadmap for their software development, they must accept, that some potential customers will not buy a Suunto watch, but wait, if Garmin is delivering better quality and if Polar is also announcing a Mac version - what will be very likely, because worldwide share of mac computers is steadily rising.

Hope the best for a good Christmas Beta Version of Training Manager for Mac!!!
