Hi Eaglebak,

1. Please also try the latest 2.2.6 build 1171 because we have improved the accurateness of distance measurement even more.

2. Yes this is on our schedule ...

3. That doesn't happen on other hardware. We have experienced the following so far:
- when you run other software (e.g. TomTom) and Run.GPS together, it might happen that upon closing the other software, the gps connection gets closed
- when you start other programs (even small programs like the SMS messenger), Windows often kicks out Run.GPS if it thinks the device is too low on memory (you would notice that because Run.GPS would have to be started anew after that)
- but that the gps connection is lost just because of an SMS coming in - I hear that for the first time so it's likely to be a HP614c iPAQ Business Navigator issue

Best regards

tom

Works perfect, almost

Having used the above hardware with Run.GPS for a couple of weeks I have the folloing comments:
1. Works really well, the tracks recorded fits the mesurements made with Garmin Forerunner 101. The length of the track measures a bit shorter on Run.GPS than on the Garmin, I run with both devices to check the distance.
2. the reports from the training are OK, but I do miss a min/KM average for the active part of the trip, and a better view of the laps, in spreadsheet form.
3. I've experienced one "BUG". When running and receiving a SMS message the GPS stops tracking.... see http://www.gps-sport.net/trainings/running_37204 where the tracking stopped at 12.5 KM and the run was 17 KM... I'm not sure where to find this BUG, in the hardware or the software??
Regards
Eaglebak
