any idea when this might come to the 7X1 series or android divices
or when the VIRB might be able to pair up with wifi garmin units?

hey Moose defiantly will see more units added to the app very soon is the word but the virb will have its own app as at this stage is not a marine product but as all of us are talking wouldn't a marine one be cool with full integration onto wifi enabled units - maybe gen 2 virb

-the android side of things is not something I have heard at this stage but will look into it for you .
