It had better not be much! I am not impressed by that at all. How am I going to waste all of next week in the lab?!

If there are charging spectators to follow the gps data then surely by association they should be paying the athletes for carrying the gps devices around with them? Or have i opened a whole new can of worms :?

Is it tric trac they are using? Seems like the athletes need to wear a vest with the receiver in a pocket on the back... looks like the same size as a phone.

Has anyone paid for the coverage yet? Is it worth it? I might have an afternoon of "writing" tomorrow for the sprint final if so.

You could get the video for free on nrk (norway) or yle (finland) - the links appeared in the worldofo live blog today. The finnish stream worked fine, more reliable than the paid-for coverage by the sounds of things - although you initially had to wait a few minutes for the black background to be replaced by the video.

No gps that I noticed on the video though...
