It requires no sensor in the shoe and just runs off the GPS. It chimes in at whatever interval you tell it to. Graphs your pace by 1/10 of a mile, maps it on Google, the whole nine yards. They also just introduced a heartrate monitor to work with the app. Additionally, it includes a web profile that tracks your info so you can view it on a larger screen.
There are some reviews complaining of accuracy, but in the three or four times I have used it so far its within 1/100 of a mile over a distance of 4 miles. I used it on a PT test course a couple weeks ago and it was within 1/100 at each 1/4 mile sign.
It's pretty sweet.

Does it require data usage? Such as running off the providers network (3G or 4G). If it doesn't that would be great considering I'm using a limited data plan - no unlimited for me.
