We are all aware that the iPhone can be used for calling, playing games and taking photos. But now it looks like iPhone use has added another dimension as far as mobile phone use is concerned. The iPhone can now be used as a means of monitoring your heart and tracking your health.

All of this was made possible by SMHEART LINK, a highly-anticipated new technology that is poised to bring unparalleled health and fitness capabilities to Apple(R) iPhone and iPod(R) touch users. For the first time ever, a technology is now available that allows the iPhone to double as a heart monitor and fitness tracking system that actually listens to a person’s heart.

In addition to the iPhone and iPod touch, SMHEART LINK can be compatible with other smartphones, PCs or other Wi-Fi enabled devices. SMHEART LINK is compatible with a growing list of heart monitor chest straps including some from fitness leaders such as Polar, Garmin, Nike, Reebok, Timex Ironman, New Balance and Numetrex. It is also compatible with biking sensors to track speed, cadence and power (watts).

Now it seems that the iPhone is indeed something anyone should have. It has become a multipurpose gadget and its marketability just went a notch higher.
