The device uses GPS informantion to determine speed and distance, unless its indoors and GPS is turned off then it uses the wheel speed sensor. The Edge and new Forerunner's (X05) have a high-sensitivity receiver that has drastically improved it's performance in trees and canyons. Check out the MotionBased forum to hear what others are saying about device accuracy. http://forums.motionbased.com/smf/index.php Mike Greetings,
