 Suunto PC Pod Wireless Transmitter By: Suunto Average Rating: 4.0 Total Reviews: 5 More Information Suunto PC Pod after patches, doesn't play well with others  On: 2007-10-17I have used the pcpod for about a month, daily in 1-2 hour workouts. The device works under Windows XP except for the part about having to install additional patches/drivers. These days, if youre buying a Windows product, it should work right out of the box without having to track down and install patches. My only complaint after the patches were installed for XP, is that there is no software for the linux platform. I prefer open source software and only use windows when I have to, as in this case. The only other constructive criticism is that the files recorded by the POD to Suuntoos training manager & training manager lite cannot be exported to popular spreadsheet programs like Lotus, Office, or OpenOffice. So, minus 1 star for having to install patches, and minus 1 star for not working well with other platforms/applications. Detailed Analysis  On: 2007-07-03This is a great tool to track your excercise activities! I am an individual who is just beginning to use a HRM and wanted a tool to keep track of daily workouts for progress and motivation. I can see this being invaluable for an individual who was training for a major atheletic event. The PC POD will allow you to select multiple criteria to create graphs and charts. You may view your progress by the day, the month or even between specific dates. What i love, is the ability to make personal notes for each log. For example, how you felt during the activity, where you went, etc. PC POD On: 2007-01-11Works great. Just plug it in to your usb port and hold down a button on your suunto watch and it automatically downloads into your suunto software program. Thats it! Very, very useful  On: 2006-12-23If you have a T series suunto this is a very nice option. You can really have useful piece of data to analyze after workout. Works Great although expensive. On: 2006-12-02I just switched from a Suunto T6 to a T4 and this PC pod works seemless between the watch and PC. It is about 2x a paper clip and with the USB connection it is easy to carry. Although a little pricy from the competition, if you want a system to track your running and easily monitor it the T4, Foot Pod and PC Pod work very well. Down side is the software which does not support MAC, come on Suunto! |
