Since I work at Dynastream (Which is essentially the sports division of Garmin), I finally got a hold of one of the FR70s along with a heart rate monitor and foot pod. I don't normally wear watches... but I think I might now :lol:

These are fitness watches that can integrate with things like the heart rate monitor and foot pod. I don't bother with the HRM too often, but I have a foot pod left in one of my shoes. It's quite convenient to use it as a human odometer even if I'm not into too much exercising, lol.

That's a relatively new product, haha. But yeah it's been really cool to play with the foot pod and FR70 every time I walk anywhere :lol:
