[Electronics-talk] treadmills

[Baracco, Andrew W]

I use my trusty Sharp Talking Time I for timing, but I would be
interested in a heart rate meter.  I also have had a few of the ones
that strap around the back and chest, but I do not think they are being
manufactured any more.

Hi,

I have a non-accessible treadmill which I use.  I use my book Sense
sleep
timer to manage time.  You can check the time left by hitting the 4 key
which tries to reset the timer and it reports the time left to go.  Just
hit
the ok key and keep going.

Regarding the talking heart rate monitor, I also would like a solution.
Do
I understand that there is a talking heart rate monitor on a wrist
watch?  I
am very interested. 

Regarding the distance issue, I have a talking pedometer.  This works
pretty
good, not sure how absolutely accurate it is.  I can't compare it to the
meter on the Treadmill since it is not accessible.

Best Regards,

Fred
