Motoactv

So in my never ending quest to find more technology to use wherever and whenever I can, I picked a Motorola MotoActv to track my running. So far so good. Works well as a music player and does a pretty good job with tracking my runs.

Pros: works well, wifi auto upload fitness data is nice, iTunes syncing for playlists and podcasts, seamless bluetooth sync, significantly improved battery life with recent firmware upgrade.

Cons: calibration with footpad for treadmill running doesn’t measure distance exactly, need wristband – armband not ideal for viewing data, cool wireless headphones with heart monitor not yet available, texts and calls syncing only works with Motorola phones.

I find it’s a lot more convenient than using my iPhone – I can wear it on my wrist and it’s not as large as the iPhone…

All in all, I give it a thumbs up – check it out.
