Ripxx is already targeting athletes-in-training with its GPS-enabled Personal Measurement Device , but it looks as if that very unit may have a little competition. Satsports GPS claims to be the world’s first device to combine “true real time interactive navigation for skiing, snowboarding, golfing, running, cycling and automotive enthusiasts in a portable, all-weather device.” Granted, it’s not like you couldn’t get your hands on a rugged navigator before, but the software here is what takes things to another level. It promises athletes real-time routing and data logging, and after your runs are through, you can sync the data with Google Earth to get a good look at what all you just accomplished. As for specs, you’ll find a 2.7-inch touchscreen, 400MHz Samsung processor, a microSD expansion card and a SiRF Star III antenna. Oh, and if you’re not down with dropping $490 on this, you can opt for the Satski, Pocket Caddy and / or Sports Log apps for WinMo and Android. Check the details in the press release and demo vid after the break.
