The Kindle!

Six months ago, Amazon introduced a new product, called the Kindle. Developed by Amazon itself, the Kindle sets out to change the way we read books, newspapers, weblogs, and more.

In a nutshell, the Kindle is a compact, electronic book with instant wireless access to 115,000 books sold by Amazon, an audiobook player, and a wireless Web browser. Kindle uses a cellular data network to deliver books, newspapers, magazines and weblogs to you immediately. This network, which Amazon calls "Whispernet", costs nothing to use; Amazon provides data connectivity free of charge as part of Kindle's purchase.

But Kindle isn't limited to books that Amazon sells — it can read books in Mobipocket or text formats, and it also reads Audible.com's protected audiobooks, HTML and Word documents, and several image formats (through Amazon's email-based conversion service). It includes very limited MP3 music support, as well.

Garmin Forerunner 305 GPS Receiver With Heart Rate Monitor Garmin Forerunner 305 GPS Receiver With Heart Rate Monitor
Price: $2.00
List Price: $299.99

Garmin Forerunner 305 GPS receiver with heart monitor

Form meets function with Garmin's high-performance line of personal trainers. The Forerunner 305 includes a high sensitivity GPS receiver, new courses feature and robust wireless heart rate monitor for optimal performance.

Lock On to Satellite Signals

Forerunner 305 sports a unique design that wraps the GPS antenna around part of the wrist for a better view of the sky, and its high sensitivity GPS receiver provides improved tracking under trees and near tall buildings. Forerunner 305 also sports a robust wireless heart rate monitor with softer, more comfortable chest strap and superior battery life. It eliminates cross-talk with other devices to reliably measure and send heart rate data, and it helps you train in your optimal heart rate zone.

Take It to the Next Level

Forerunner 305's courses feature lets you compete against previous workouts: you can compare your pace and heart rate to your past performance over the same run. You can also use Forerunner 305 to train for your next duathlon or triathlon with multi-sport workouts, a feature that lets you seamlessly transition between sports without resetting the unit, so you can use it for running, biking and more.

Train indoors and still track your distance, pace and calories burned with the optional Foot Pod accessory. This wireless sensor attaches to your running shoe and transmits distance and pace data to your Forerunner 305 so you can still use it when GPS reception is unavailable.

Get the Data You Need

You can customize any of Forerunner 305's three main data screens — up to twelve data fields give you instant feedback on your workout. And, as with every Forerunner, each workout is stored in memory so you can review and analyze the data and see how you've improved over time.

Track Your Progress

As an added benefit, you can plan, analyze and store data from your workouts through the online community, Garmin Connect, or the free Garmin Training Center software. Conveniently upload your data to Garmin Connect for an in-depth analysis of your workouts, online mapping and route sharing that will take your training to the next level. With Garmin Training Center® software, you can analyze data with interactive graphs that chart your pace, time, distance and heart rate. Overlay your run on a map so you can pinpoint specific areas and see how elevation and other factors affect your performance.
