GPS Systems

I am looking for a GPS system that would include a heart rate monitor and biking stats. Any suggestions?

I haven't seen or used one, but Garmin has a new GPS/Cycle computer with HRM capability. Check out their web site for details.

Thank you for your message. Are you interested in hearing about my research and final purchase?

Thanks, it would be nice at one level, but I am unlikely to invest in anything like a GPS in the near future... I find that a cycle computer and cheap HRM do the job for me... Later, who knows? 😄

The new Garmin unit ("Edge" I think) is discussed here cyclingforums.comt280101 .htmlOpen ↗. It looks very interesting because the reception appears to be much better than prior units and it uses both GPS and barometric pressure for altitude. If I were in the market for a GPS system, I would wait until this unit is released before making a decision.
