Now back to goofing around. You've got, what, 44 odd little apps available for that.... thing?
last I checked, we were talking about mobile devices (though I suppose you could install a GPS receiver in a desktop computer and drag it behind your bike in a trailer).

anyway, you are again making my point about how many macolytes have this insatiable need to tell the 90% of the world that doesn't use Crapple devices how stupid they are.

one reason I held off switching to winphone was all the tech reviewers groaning like you do about the lack of apps. I did not find it to be an issue. Strava was the only thing I couldn't find, but then Cyclometer does the job (and uploads to Strava nicely). so that's a workaround. I wouldn't expect Strava to ship a winphone version anytime soon (I know the CEO). as far as I can tell they are mostly focused on the U.S. market where iOS devices have a much larger share than is true worldwide (12-15% and dropping, last I saw; winphone is 4-5% and growing; Android is the juggernaut at 80ish%).
