GlobalSat GH-615

So GlobalSat is launching a new GPS-watch trainer in Europe, specifically France, called the GlobalSat GH-615 and it looks like a pretty normal watch from what I can tell. Inside the GH-615 though, you've got a SiRF star III chipset and like you can see emblazoned on the front, it is waterproof to IPX7 standards.

Garmin pioneered the GPS fitness trainer segment with the popular Forerunner series, and others have sought to one up them with smaller and very capable GPS based watch trainers. GlobalSat themselves also have a GPS trainer, the GlobalSat GH-601 fitness GPS.

With the GH-615 GPS watch, you can be out on a run or on the trail, and this watch will grab up datapoints which are downloadable to your PC when you get back from your run. The data is also available for viewing on Google Earth.

Hopefully we'll see this in the US too.
