My wife is getting me one for Christmas. She had bought me a talking pedometer thinking it was the same thing. She just returned it and had me send her the link to Al's Gifts.
WOO-HOO

I have been collecting gift certificates to cabelas for Christmas and my Birthday. I want to get an Garmin etrex GPS. It is the size of a cell phone and will give all the same info as the watch (except mile splits). This way I can use it for Hunting and traveling as well. Also it is WAAS enabled (Wide Area Augmentation System), which means better accuracy. Plus I can upload my routes to a GPS compatiable maping software to save my routes.

If it's the size of a cell phone, where would you carry it on your runs?

I was thinking Don Rickles would be a good celebrity voice to use.
