Thought GPS devices were just for navigation? Oh, think again. Satsports, a London-based company, has just debuted Satsports GPS for North America. It's a handheld GPS with apps for a variety of sports.
Satsports GPS comes with three preloaded apps: Satski (providing ski maps from around the world), Pocket Caddy (with 2D and 3D views of golf courses, plus yardage information), and Satsports Log (capturing speed, distance, time, and more for runners, cyclists, mountain bikers, walkers, and hikers).
The device can also be used as a turn-by-turn street navigator with spoken directions with the addition of a $65 miniSD card. The Satsports GPS device is all-weather and comes with a car charger and a bike mount, although not with a car window mount. It's priced optimistically at $490.

These do look sweet, but that's a hefty price tag. I went the econoroute via handheld gps systems, may look into something like this next time around if the price drops a little though.

Sounds nice, but I cannot find any review on it.
I lihe that a bike mount is included, but would like to get some dimensions, weight etc and see it on a bike.
Price is high and maps, and car mount are not included.
