Check out Garmin’s new Forerunner 310XT training watch. Encapsulated in a beautiful futuristic ruggedized Dick Tracy like housing, the Forerunner 310XT is a GPS-enabled waterproof training watch that allows a user to track his/her triathlon or any other related training exercise and then wirelessly transmit the data back to a desired PC.
The Forerunner is waterproof to a depth of 50 meters and can be worn during the pool or lake swim portion of an exercise. Once out of the water, the 310XT easily moves from your wrist, to your bike with the optional quick real bike mounts.
The Forerunner 310XT tracks your position precisely using GPS satellite data that records distance, pace, heart rate (optional), power data (from ANT+™-enabled third-party power meters) and more. The 310XT also features a high-sensitivity GPS and HotFix satellite prediction mean that allows the Forerunner to acquire satellites quickly and track your movements even near tall buildings or under tree cover.
Once you’ve finished your grueling workout, the innovative ANT+ wireless technology automatically transfers data to your computer when Forerunner is in range. No cables, no hookups. The data’s is just there, ready for you to analyze, categorize or share through Garmin's online community, Garmin Connect or via Garmin's proprietary 'Training Center' software package .
The multi-sport 'Dicky Tracy' like device has up to 20 hours of battery life and is available with optional heart rate monitor, foot pod or cadence sensor. Forerunner 310XT retails for $350.
