In this video I’ll show you how to view your history and how to manage the data from the computer since you cannot delete saved activities. The best way to move your activities is to upload them to garmin connect, or to garmin training center. to manage the activities, you simply need to delete the .fit files from the activity folder on the garmin drive once you plug in your forerunner 110 into your usb port.Special thanks to Trail Shop for providing the GPS for review.

Garmin Forerunner 405 / 410 – Clearing Your User Data (Hard Reset)

This is to compliment my original 405 Soft Reset video, I forgot to include the actual hard reset – where you reset your unit to factory defaults and erase all history (ie- when you want to sell your unit).

Garmin Forerunner 110 vs 405 /410 Compare Review

This is a quick compare review between a garmin forerunner 110 and a 405. Our local outfitter store, Trail Shop provided me with a demo unit and I ran with the unit for about 20 km which forms the basis of my review. I will use the 405 as the comparison. overall the device is small & sexy than the 405 and much more appealing as a wearable watch. The power save & power off feature means that you only need to charge the unit every 3 weeks. But with normal use, I seem to charge it every week. The display is nice and clean and provided the basic data fields: distance, timer, date, lap pace and heart rate. Features that this unit does not have: auto-scroll, auto-pause, courses, history management, interval training, advanced workouts, data fields customization, & navigation. While most of us don’t use a majority of these features, it is a specific runner that will find the 110 the perfect unit for them. Personally, I liked the 110 and wished it included auto-scroll & auto-pause. However if you do a lot of custom workouts, this probably won’t be the unit for you. But if you are a beginner or long distance runner with no interest in micro managing your runs, than this would fit in.Special thanks to Trail Shop for providing the GPS for review.

GPS Accuracy – iPhone vs Garmin Forerunner 405 vs Garmin Legend C

This is a video experiment comparing 3 GPS devices and their accuracy in trying t get as close to a waypoint as possible. I was using an iPhone 3GS, Garmin forerunner 405 & Garmin Legend C. I entered the same coordinates to a geocache, once I found the geocache, I placed all 3 GPS next to each other to compare what was the difference in GPS between each of them.

Newegg Review: Garmin Oregon 550t Handheld GPS

www.newegg.com Summer is upon us, so it’s time to get outdoors and enjoy some sunshine and exercise — we recommend lots of sunscreen if you’ve been locked inside playing video games for the past 6 months. If you would like to add some advanced technology to your excursions into the great outdoors, you might consider a handheld GPS such as the Garmin Oregon 550t. Rich got to spend some time with this feature-rich GPS over the past week, and today he’s sharing his experience with us. Rich also hiked deep into the wilderness of Schabarum Park (located near the Newegg offices here in Southern California), and discovered a geocache where he deposited a special note.
