Hi. I've been following this project for a couple years with great interest but I have a few questions (for those with gen1 and just those with some knowledge of the possibilities/limitations of the hardware)
How hardy is the unit? I realize it has no moving parts but could it take repeated jarring up and down? Also, is it too heavy or too big for an armband strap? I'm a marathon runner and words cannot describe how astounding it would be for me to be able to find a waterproofed armband case for this unit to take on runs. Not only could it provide cell service in case of emergencies and act as my portable music player but with the gps and accelerometers I could (with a little help) get some useful runners' apps in place to track important numbers on runs -- not just times on terrains but even stride data (assuming the accelerometers are sensitive enough to track arm swing + impact). Assuming the unit is up to these tasks I fully intend (with a gen2 in hand) to try to get an app up and running for logging this type of info ... anyone who thinks this is a good idea or has any additional thoughts, I'd love to hear them!
