Erich 22:36 | Hi, I've discovered your software and was wondering, are you considering the implementation of the polar BT heart rate transmitter ? Would be a "GREAT" addition !! Thanks for listening. | |
Stephen 20:45 Location: Phone Model: | Hi Erich, Interesting to see that the Polar HR Monitor is now available to buy separately (when the last discussion came up about this last year it was only available then as a bundle with a Nokia phone). It does however still look to be heavily tied to the SportsTracker software, so I don't know if the bluetooth interface would be available to other applications - are you aware of any other software that can communicate with it? Although I do like the idea of having the heart rate displayed/recorded in TMJ I'm not yet sure I can justify the extra development/complexity, but will certainly consider it!! Cheers, Stephen | |
yano 13:45 Location: Phone Model: | Hi! question: using an external BT GPS, would it be possible at all to connect the HR Monitor simulateously ... ? Cheers, yano | |
Stephen 9:56 Location: Phone Model: | Hi Yano, Yeah, I've wondered about this too, would be a complete non-starter if it wasn't possible! I think in theory it *should* work J2ME-wise, though it might not be supported on all phones. eg: the bluetooth power-save mode on my W910 suggests that this limits the phone to a single BT connection at a time, so would need to be disabled. I haven't tried this in practice though... Cheers, Stephen | |
