Still, if Samsung can pull this off – then the folks at Garmin and Fitbit will definitely need to re-address either their pricing or feature sets, since their on-board music+GPS offerings are far higher in price point.

In the meantime, I think for cycling I’m going to simply cement/epoxy/sticky a quarter-turn mount adapter to the back of mine when I get it in, and that way I can use it with any Garmin-compatible quarter-turn mount out there.

www.dcrainmaker.com/2010/10/giant-acorn-nut-2010-race-report.html
