I apologize if this is a dumb question, but what am I getting for the money I don't have with Strava on a cell phone for free?

Much longer battery life, support to ant+ sensors (heart rate, speed, cadence and power), navigation, rain proof, much smaller footprint, easier operation while riding...

I really enjoy my Garmin. I also have the latest Android and programm that transfers all my data from the garmin. You will have to decide for your self which you prefer. The set up pn the garmin is so much ahead of the cell phone.

Usually there is an annual fee, but SkyCaddie is currently running a promotion that allows you to get out of any fee's for life, as long as you register the product before December 31st. While the Gimme's packaging doesn't advertise this like on the Aire or Watch, the promotion does in fact include the Gimme. If you have any additional questions, please let us know. Thank you, ~Travis Anything-Golf Team

If you get the web-enabled traffic app that works through your smart phone data plan for a one-time payment of $15 then it provides real-time traffic that updates several times a minute. It will tell you of traffic ahead of you, tell you how much delay you will have, and route you around it if you so choose. It will also show traffic on your route and give you an alternate route with traffic also. The HD Traffic that is free with the unit and uses HD radio is not very good. It updates rarely and is not real-time and is very sporadic. If you get the unit and have a smart phone then just pay the fee and get the web app for use through your smart phone. it is totally worth it. its the first standalone gps traffic feature i've ever had that actually works.

Two things: yearly website subscription and SIM card for the SMS messaging.I believe there is a $5 per year subscription to use the tracking website. There is also whatever service cost for for the SMS SIM card. I recommend Truphone ($30 for a sim card and $15 credit) since their credit expiration is longer than most and receiving SMS messages to the device is FREE. Hope this helps.

There is not an annual fee. I believe once you download the app onto your computer its yours.

Text costs 1 full unit, whether you send it or receive it, on Androids. Tracfone is raking in the cash on that feature :)

I just got mine from my pharmacist because Medicare will no longer pay for the test strip drums for my Accucheck. :( Anyway, the box contains the meter a bunch of literature, an ad for their Home A1C meter with a $7-off coupon, 10 test strips, a lancet device, 10 lancets, 2.5 ml of control solution, a very cheap wallet, two log books, the manual, a quick reference guide, toll-free number for 24/7 care, their web site info, a card with a mysterious 7-digit number. Another card which says if you register, they will send you a free gift, your choice of a better wallet or 25 free lancets. The card also says that when you register,you can join the Contour Choice Program, which will give you free replacement batteries, extended warranty, and discounts on the test strips. Though a Choice Program membership card is already included in the box anyway. It does NOT come with a cable to connect the device to the computer. If you want to download your test results to a computer USB port, you need to buy a $15 cable directly from Bayer. I don't know how much they charge for shipping it. Their software is allegedly free, but you have to fill out a lot of information about yourself before they let you download it. I have just called their tech support and was told their software is proprietary. I asked because I use Microsoft HealthVault. According to the support guy, their driver is not compatible with HealthVault. Anyway, this is much more information than you requested, so I believe I have answered your question.

You can upload the data through to your computer. The advantage of the Link is if you have a cellphone with their app you can check your progress anytime you want. Hope this helps.

It doesn't connect to the computer at all - that cable is only a charger. That said, I haven't used Strava. But it sounds like you don't really want to manually enter data?

I just called Garmin. The person who answered the phone said that if you get a unit with V8 mapping data you will be sent a free update when they become available at the end of July 2007 [or maybe early August]. To get the free update, don't order it through ordinary channels. Call customer support and talk to a person. He reassured me that it won't matter who I happen to talk to when I call back; this is the new policy. It tool me 10 minutes to get through at 10:40AM PDT. As soon as they announce the update, at which point the rumor of the new policy will have spread far and wide, i'm sure wait times will increase, but there's a finite number of units covered so it'll settle down if you wait a week or so. They also told me to expect substantial improvements in the map data and POI data of V2008 over V8. This last statement, of course, should be taken with a grain of salt. -dk

I am shopping for my 1st GPS. TomTom 340TM is supposed to include free maps for the life of the device. How can they refuse to upgrade the maps on your refurb? slloyd1000@verizon.net

Hi Robbin, it can be added to your current phone plan which is normally in the form of an add-a-line for $9.99. You can get a prepaid or month to month SIM card if you prefer that. It sends the info straight to your phone in the form of a text message with speed, time, and coordinates that on a smartphone redirects straight to your online map. Its an awesome gadget for tracking anything that moves! Take a look at our BayTracker 2000 model as well....same attributes but longer battery time and stronger magnetic mount. Thank you!

The 810 connects to your phone via Bluetooth so your data goes to strava or Garmin as it happens. That way the Guy you stole a Strava segment from can run you over before you get home
