@will_lam that's a dedicated pro multisports watch. I'm not sure if it's possible to compare it with anything out there, since it is designed and built (both hw and sw) for a specific user profile and purpose. It's good to see an update to 910XT, but I'm disappointed to see that it is still (really) huge in size.

@ugurkaner Yeah.. it's utility will only resonate with that specific profile, which already is a limited market. With Pebble, Apple watch etc that address a broader market with running software that is "pretty good" but not as a good the 920XT, I'm pretty sure it's not going to be a "knockout success" in terms of sales.

Not sure how this will compare to other smart watches in terms of their integrations with software such was RunKeeper or Apple's Watch that's coming up. Unless you're a hardcore runner, I'm not sure if the value prop is strong enough to justify spending $449
