With all the amazing talent that abounds in the masters swimming world, has anyone come across or is interested in working on a new invention...in ear, wireless bluetooth waterproof head phones. Something so small it looks like a hearing aid, that would talk to your waterproof ipod wirelessly? Or is it not possible because of how sound waves travel underwater? Is it just not possible because of physics? I thought it would be so cool to have them for dryland training even though they've not been invented yet...or have they????
Any insight would be gladly appreciated. I read the threads about the swimman technology. I was just wondering about wireless swim technology.

Finis has something sorta like this - you wear it under your cap or goggle strap - it doesn't tell you what your pace is, but you SET the pace & it beeps. So if you want to say, keep a 32 sec 50, you set it so that it beeps at 32 sec - you'll be able to tell right off if you're keeping the pace you want. I'm sure that the technology you're talking about, which is really just like a waterproof pedometer, isn't that far off, when you think about it.
cool- thanks for posting
