Nokia Sports Tracker

Nokia Sports Tracker, one of the best applications for mobile phones ever, has so far not been available for my E71, which is one of the best phones ever. Until now, so I took it out for a test row yesterday.
Sports Tracker simply records where you went and how fast, showing the evidence as maps and graphs on the phone screen for analysis. And you can upload the data to the website for everyone to see how lazy you have been.
It even allows you to take pics, which are attached automatically to the track based on the time it was taken.
And tracks can be uploaded as a .kmz file for display on Google Earth. Unfortunately, Google seems to have a policy of taking pictures at low tide so it looks as though I was rowing through mud.
