I Phone Apps / GPS
Anyone use the i phone cycling apps or the gps app for biking? Seems to me that it would work... not sure if there's a handle bar mount though...

I developed TrackMyTour.com with bike touring in mind. It lets you add waypoints to a map from the road so that family and friends can follow your progress.

The iPhone doesn't have a long enough battery life to use as a primary navigation tool -- especially if you have the GPS continually active. I can't see much benefit to a handlebar mount....

Here's an iphone handlebar mount:

I've considered it, but don't have much space to spare on my handlebars...
