Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Doesn't the ipower have the same thing? It measures acceleration, altitude, air density, temperature, and deducts it?

Only problem I heard was that it was accurate but slow, the numbers aren't "live".

That's a lot of crunk in the mirror!

Here's what they state on the web page:

Yes, the mid grade model (FLEX-HR) will be available by summer 2007. It features heart rate monitor transmitted in also digital wireless. FLEX-HR will be the world first triple-digital-wireless system (speed, cadence & heart-rate) nobody never do.

Also the top grade model (FLEX-HRS) is scheduled to be available by the end of 2007 which features 100% accurate power measurement system for much better analysis of your training.

Both additional features are upgradable. Also we are planning to add more useful and convenient functions on these models.

As others have said. Nice, but lacking:
