#gps watch

With the Forerunner 25, Garmin basically took what was good with its predecessor, the Forerunner 15, and integrated new features to the GPS running watch whilst keeping its competitive price tag. Like its precursor, the Garmin FR25 is also water-proof for up to 50 meters and tracks a lot of information about your workout such as pace, distance travelled, step count and calories burnt thanks to the on-board GPS module. Both GPS watches are expected to ship in the third quarter of the year. A lot of middle to high-end phones being sold nowadays come with GPS and/or A-GPS support and I wondered if people really use them at all. Our poll this time is for phone users -- if they use the built-in GPS in their phones. Most of my experience with using GPS is while driving to places I'm not familiar with. Instead of the physical maps (I have one of those EazyMaps), I often Google Maps and GPS to give me some sense of direction. Is the GPS in your phone an unused feature or have you found some good use for it?
