GPS software for joggers? - Touch HD General

Hi all, I'm due to start a new training regime and decided that a bit of a new toy will help keep me motivated!
I've seen an application for iphone that tells you your time, distance and speed whilst you're running. Does anyone know of a similar bit of software for the touch HD?
Thanks in advance,
Martin

Take a look here.

iRun
But I think it's not free

NoniGPSPlot - freeware and can be uploaded to google earth etc

Thanks all, will gice the g-watch a go tomorrow and go from there.
Cheers,
Martin

www.sportsdo.net works well, and although it's not free the demo version works well enough.

...i vote gwatch - very easy to move the track to google earth...

very very nice sports app with so many functions...

Thank you..nice one, but i have bought runGPS(every penny worth) I will try yours also.

pefect tool is Trackr realtime maps, people can follow you realtime, and al tracks can be reviewed again. measures disctance speed ec.

Cheers for the feedback all. I've been mostly using GWatch this week and have found it's simplicity to use whilst running a bonus.
Will definitely be giving the other free ones a go at some point though.
In the mean time can someone tell me how to plot my route on google maps. I've tried searching and had no joy.
Thanks,
Martin

I use SmartRunner (http://www.smartrunner.de/pages/LatestSmartRuns.aspx)
Its free. But its german!

Rungps user and it truely offers a large magnitude of options. Good choice.

Is there anything like this for Pocket PC (sports related)?

This is a great app for the iPhone if you are into sports, or have fantasy leagues or whatever. I'm curious if there is anything like this, that will allow you to get sports updates, and track team/player stats for the Pocket PC.
Check out the video to see how it works. Thanks for your help.

I would also like to see if there is something like this, or any sports related applications.

Would you recommend it over shopsavvy? Updated my first post as well, by the time I'm done my first post will take up the first page lol.
As far as the file manager its a good start but can't open most of the files which sucks.

Cool thanks gonna switch em out right now!
I didn't like the solitare interface. It was a forced landscape, and the card sizing is funky...not the cards themselves, but the symbols/numbers. They should've taken a cue from WinMo and made the hearts, diamonds, clubs, spades oversized so that they're more visible.

[APP] G-Shotgun (Release: April 21 ...)

Hey folks!
Me and Mr. Nick are currently working on the G-Shotgun app, which is the wm equivalent to the iPhone app "Shotgun Free".
All credit for programming goes to Mr. Nick, many thanks!
I'm very happy to announce that our problem is solved and G-shotgun will be released today!
Suggestions about the graphics or future functions are still more than welcome! The app doesn't have to be exactly like the iPhone version does it?
.
there's something similar on pccgeeks (last post on page 2), but it's not so good (ugly graphics and some work to do on sensor as well). But maybe you can cohoperate with mike to release a good app

Thanks guys, but ...
Would not call the graphics ugly ... squished up a bit, but not ugly - It is a real shotgun! taken from Google images. :S - It was however the only one I could find that looked good on the small screen.
By all means if there is a better graphic, including animated pump action, I will use it and re-release!
And .. this was my first sensor app, so the sensor code was twitchy. I have since worked out better code and when I get time (the next week or so) I will re-code and release the new version.
Mike.
yes mike, you're right: with "ugly" i meant the image is not displayed as it should. That's why, seeing Shoddy shout, i thought you can work together to release a great app

sounds good to me.
I have a couple of questions though..
is your app currently working as the "Shotgun Free" app? if not, could you add the features from shotgun free to your code? Because my graphics are almost (it's supposed to) the same as that app.
and.. would you mind changing the name to "G-Shotgun"? I think it sounds better than "Virtual Shotgun" or what it is you call it.
guys, i hope you'll consider also a wvga version for us poor HD users

Same here. It would be a nice little program if I could make use of it. I love riding my motobike but not on the racetrack.
But I will think of you if I'll ever do
Thanks
That's a nice to have anyway. Cheers.
its great also to test speedup out of track...
under the speed limit law...of course!!!
OK!!!
Nice tip!
Especially the track section and speed per corner is a really nice feature
I'll forward this to some of my friends that still race!
thanks man!!!
I've tried few months ago and...I've noticed it's unusable with internal gps antenna, but it's quite accurate if you're using an external bluetooth gps receiver

i'm looking for an application to measure the acceleration and speed of my car.
suggestions?

what you need is gPC from extreme-apps.com
Huge downside is that you have to pay for it :\
I am looking for something like gPC that is freeware but if you dont mind paying you should look it up.
by acceleration are you meaning like 0-60

To bad that one dont use gforce to calculate acceleration :\
I dont know the updatefreq on the hd2 but gps alone might be a bit off?
Tell me im wrong this would be great if i am XD

Cant you just use a stop watch in conjunction with the speedo then work it out?? I would think that using a GPS application will give you sketchy results at best?
you can get gps performance by searching on google you'll find a torrent of files there.
is it just me that GPC application can't get along well with HD2? I setup the trial version but I can't press any of the icons on the bottom. Only X button on top right works.

you have to pay for it to work propperly i think.
should work well with hd2 since i can activate gps and it registers gforce.
Bottombuttons i think is pay-to-use.

Does that one work even when not in wvga like the HD2 is?
yep works great. 0-60 time for my car accurate 8.2 sec.

Thanks for the tip. This is an amazing program, it well deserves the money. First license is 15 euros though, not 7.5 euros as someone said before.
