I'll be getting a new phone soon, and I NEED one that does ANT+. Only one I've heard of to date is the Sony Experia range, which are according to googled reviews otherwise utterly w*nk. Does anyone have any scurrilous rumours as to any other manufacturers building in this pant-moistening feature?

    Yeah, but that looks crap. I want it built in.

    The Xperia Arc is the first phone to support ANT+, so either you use that, or you get an attachment such as the Wahoo heart rate monitor for the iPhone.

    What I'm clearly after is RUMOURS of decent phones, to be released in the near future, which may have the necessary gubbins.

    Ah sorry,

    Check the comments on that post, apparently the Nokia N8 has an ANT+ chip in it, also
    With the release of Xperia™ arc, Sony Ericsson is the first handset manufacturer to have integrated support for ANT+. The ANT+ support will also be introduced in Sony Ericsson Xperia™ X8, Xperia™ X10 mini, and Xperia™ X10 mini pro through software upgrades in Q1 2011. Several future Sony Ericsson Android™ devices will also support ANT+ technology.

    So i guess hold tight for the new SE releases.

    EDIT:

    Just found this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=563765, could be worth reading it.
