Might be fun to pair with a bluetooth heart rate monitor for highly customized aerobic (running/cycling) workouts. Particularly for allowing someone to easily get a customized interval workout. More specifically, I would enjoy having a heart rate alarm that allowed me to spend 10 mins at 70% max heart rate, then switch up to 4 minutes at 95%, 2 mins recovery to no less than 70%, repeat . . . I could see how personal/high school/college coaches might like that. Has anybody done any hacking with the garmins HRMs with GPS?

Or to buzz every 30 seconds (or however long you're going) for HITT workouts. I've tried using MP3s with beeps put in every 30 seconds, but the headphones fall out/off/get knocked around when I'm sprinting full-bore. MP3s also have the disadvantage of forcing you to start right on a beep, so if you get interrupted for a second or two it throws off your workout. A HRM could start whenever you started.
