the heart rate monitor is (currently) only good when staying still.
I'm not sure whether that still stands.
Ah ok. I didn't spot that. I'll try some of the other heart rate monitoring apps next time I'm out and about. Its a shame as heart rate is fairly fundemental to a sports watch. I do seem to remember reading a post by Gordon saying he had to reverse engineer the heart rate monitor bit to get it to work so I guess we will be stuck for a while until we have our own code.
The HRM was one of my top requirements for a watch, so when I can I'll be digging around at it. I think Gordon eventually got hold of a datasheet but wasn't sure whether he was allowed to share it, so he might have improvements in mind already.
