Possible Motorola GPS Running Watch to Rival Nike+ and Garmin?

With the popularity of running gadgets, I won’t be surprised if more products are being introduced in the market.  Last month, a photo of a possible Motorola sportswatch circulated in the internet.  It looks very much like the Nike+ iPod design with added features of a Garmin Forerunner.

The photo was from a survey.  Probably Motorola is studying the feasibility of the product before releasing it to the market.  I would definitely give it a thumbs up.  The GPS watch is still unnamed but part of the survey list possible names like MotoActive.

Here are the rumored features of the watch:

  • GPS tracking and measurement
  • Distance, speed, pace
  • For running, cycling, workout and other sports
  • Music player
  • Android-based device
  • wireless PC sync
  • ANT+
  • Heart Rate Monitor

There was no indication if this GPS watch will really be released to the market.  If it does, would you consider buying it?
