<div class='os_post_top_link'><a href='http://www.skido.info/default.aspx' target='_blank'>http://www.skido.info/default.aspx</a><br /><br /></div><i>"Welcome to Skido the revolutionary personal telemetry system for your mobile phone or PDA. Skido enables you to see and hear your speed, distance, altitude, gradient, pace and calories updated in real-time while you ski. Using Skido allows you to keep a record of your skiing performance providing a fun record of your ski adventures and a log of your skiing improvement. Your Skido data can be analysed on your phone or pda using the built-in lap and graphing functions or uploaded to your personal Skido portal page for more in-depth analysis."</i><br /><br /><img src="http://www.smartphonethoughts.com/images/skido1.jpg" alt="User submitted image" title="User submitted image"/><br /><br />They also make versions for biking and running and they all appear to run on the Smartphone and Pocket PC platforms. You can check the other versions out <a href="http://www.expansys.com/p_sportsdo.asp">here.</a> You of course need a GPS receiver for this to work. They have a demo version but it is limited to your first kilometer. I would advise that you don't look at your Smartphone as you fly down the slopes however. Just a tip. :wink:

Very confusing product lineup. I cant tell what the difference between bikedo &amp; cycledo --- or snowdo &amp; skido -- The web pages were all based on the same template and often they forgot to change the name of the product.

The Bikedo features page says "rundo provides...about your skiing" HuH do the marketing people even read this stuff.


A simple chart listing the features of each would be helpful.

I agree. And for the price, it should really be a buy once, and get all the versions. IMHO.
