Our Garmin Forerunner 610 Review will be available as soon as it’s been field tested by some real users. The expected ship date of this full featured GPS wrist watch is mid-May 2011. This is Garmin’s first touch screen watch, and early reports suggest that it works as advertised. It looks like there isn’t much this watch can’t do and we’re hoping that it also has some simplicity for users to who don’t choose to use the advanced features. The swipe and tap touchscreen may be a big step up from the controversial touch bezel of its predecessor.

The Forerunner 610 provides distance, pace, GPS position, heart rate, calories and more. Supposedly, it can even guide you back to your starting point while you are on a run. A new feature called Virtual Racerâ„¢ lets you race your previous bests or other challenges and accounts for varying speeds and real-time conditions. Another new feature is the Training Effect capability from Firstbeat. Training Effect measures the impact of an activity on your aerobic fitness. It is calculated based from data in your user profile, your heart rate and the difficulty of the activity. The Garmin Forerunner 610 also offers customizable heart rate zones, alerts and heart-rate based calorie computations.
