garmin forerunner + tablet?

whoa, that app is neat! I was looking for something to connect my edge 500 to my tablet, followed the link, and it's not just for the forerunner. According to that page, it supports forerunner 301, 205, 305, 110 and edge 205, 305, 500, 800. Surely works with the 500!

I took it for a ride and it's very nice. I need gear tracking so I hope it will come soon as promised.

I really like my new toy

Hope to see it growing fast, that guy has got all my support!

Angelika, the app is now in closed beta: http://www.sportablet.com/close-beta-program.html

I got my free activation code, and it works beautifully with my 305!

hey Angie,

I'm garmin-addicted too!

I've seen something like that a few days ago, in the Garmin Connect page on facebook: a video of a forerunner connected to a tablet (android, not ipad).

here is a link to the video on youtube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=toI1_7mJNHA

looks promising, and I actually look forward to trying it out!

hello guys,

is there a way to connect a garmin forerunner (I'm running with a good ol' 305) to a tablet like an ipad or android?

Right now I'm using garmin connect (back home) which is a bit clumsy and requires a pc + internet connection. When I'm training on track I lack both. I tried a notebook + 3G key or even using the garmin training center so I don't need to be connected, but it's still a major hassle (and embarassing ).

I tried using a smartphone instead of the forerunner but didn't like it, weights more, doesn't get heart rate, screen is too small when you want to look at the charts, etc.

It would be so slick to bring a tablet, connect the forerunner, and just touch everything .

Can you help me?

Angelika
