I don’t know, maybe manufactures of consumer electronics are preparing for global warming and ice melting, because the waterproof devices seem to pop up on a more regular basis these days.

This personal underwater clock counts the number of laps you swim, records the time it took to complete each lap and your total time. On top of that it will also estimate the amount of calories burned.

Simply press the Lap Track to start and again each time you complete a lap and the Lap Track will do the rest. Each time the Lap Track is pressed, your split time will be displayed for 5 seconds so you can check your times as you swim. The entire Lap Track is a button, so you wont need to worry about slowing down to press any small buttons.

Features:

• Count Your Lap Times
• Count Your Total Swim Time
• Calculate The Amount of Calories Burnt
• Count Down Feature
• Attach To Pool with Suction Pads

The Finis Lap Track costs £39 (about $80 USD) at advancedmp3players.co.uk.

Now those who prefer getting in shape in the water rather than on land can also enjoy their favorite music during the exercise.

Dolphin is a small waterproof MP3 player that you strap onto the goggles. It comes with water tight earplugs and is available in 1GB and 2 GB sizes.

Anything But iPod writes that “the press release states the 2GB version to be selling for 19,800 Yen or around $160 USD starting in July.”
