Beta 1 of V3.0.8 is out today. This release brings a number of bugs fixes to the previous release, and includes support for CycleOps’ new Joule head unit. In this release, the .bin files form the unit must be manually imported, either by using the ‘Import’ option in the File menu, or by drag-and-dropping the files from the Joule onto the iSMARTtrain window.
New features/bug fixes include:

I’ve had a few customers recently asking about the status of support for the Suunto HRMs in the latest release of iSMARTtrain, as there’s no mention of it on the website.
Basically, iSMARTtrain V3.0.7 supports the Suunto T3, T4 & T6. The reason that it’s not mentioned on the website is that, during the beta period, we had a number of users who found the software just didn’t work – the software simply refused to ‘see’ their Suunto HRM. I’ve been unable to get to the bottom of the problem, as we’ve had two users with identical setups, one of whom can get the download to work, and the other who can’t. And, of course, it always works for me! I’ve got no idea how many users are successfully using the software with the Suunto devices, as I only hear from the ones who have a problem. Because of this unknown factor, we’ve decided for the moment to simply not list compatibility on our website.
If you want to know if iSMARTtrain will work with your Suunto device on your Mac, simply download the application from our website, and try it. The software is fully functional without buying a serial number. You’ll also need to download the appropriate driver (T3/T4 or T6) from the drivers section of the website (http://www.ismarttrain.com/drivers/).
Let me know if you’re successful or not…

The Garmin Forerunner 110 isn’t listed in the download dialog as a supported device. However, the device appears as a USB drive when it’s connected to the Mac, containing its activities as .FIT files. Since this is the same as the Garmin Edge 500, the FR110 can be used by selecting ‘USB’ from the ‘Ports’ popup menu and ‘Garmin Edge 500′ from the ‘Device’ menu.
If there’s any problems using it, let me know or post in our forums.
The final release of V3.0.7 is now out. This release contains a couple of bug fixes for Garmin Edge 500/.FIT file downloading, and some improvements in Polar PPP and Suunto STE file importing. It also fixes a problem using Soniclink with a non-admin user account.
You should be prompted to download the latest version when iSMARTtrain starts, or you can download it from http://www.ismarttrain.com/downloads.php.
Beta 2 of V3.0.7 is out. I released V3.0.6 last week, but found a couple of bugs that affected new users and then importing of .FIT & .STE files. These are now fixed.

Barring any other major bugs, V3.0.7 will be out as a final release after the weekend.
Beta 23 of V3.0.6 is out now. This release contains some improvements to the code for downloading from polar, SRM & Ergomo devices.
It will also now will happily co-exist with Polar Websync software. In previous releases, downloadng from a Flowlink device would fail if Polar’s ‘polard’ daemon was running in the background. The software now stops the daemon from running before downloading and restarts it once the download has completed. It is still necessary to quit the Websync software that’s running in the menubar, though – simply section quit from the menu. You will be asked for your system password when the daemon is stopped and started.

Beta 21 of V3.0.6 is out now. Most of the changes are bug fixes including a fix for locating your database file in a location other than ~/Library/Application Support/iSMARTtrain/ – handy for Dropbox users who want to sync their database file between two Macs.
