This new bike specific GPS computer thing from Gamin that bikecentric pointed out looks pretty sweet.

The Edge works like any other GPS unit communicating directly with the satellites high in the sky. Using the new SiRF chip promises better signal deep in the trees, which we all know can hinder the effectiveness of using GPS to track distance. Add the wheel speed/cadence sensor and even when the GPS signal is blocked from the sky your bike computer will track the actual distance ridden.

What’s not so sweet? The pricetag.

The cheapy one rings up at $250.

Maybe for Christmas.
