This is neat:

Garmin just announced a new iPhone ANT+ adapter that works with the Garmin Fit iPhone app.

Basically, you plug the little Garmin antenna into the bottom of your iPhone 4S, iPhone 4, iPhone3GS and it will receive the signal from Garmin ANT+ devices and interface with Garmin Connect via the Fit iPhone app.

I just downloaded the Garmin Fit iPhone app (.99 cents in the iPhone App Store) and it accessed all my Garmin Connect files from my Garmin Connect account immediately after sign in. Awesome!

Big fun. The Garmin ANT+ Adapter for iPhone sells for $49.99.

Garmin isn't known for its fitness products

Ha!

Not bad.  full functionality of a GPS device for $50 extra.  I'm intrigued.

Would make a pretty nice bike computer, maps, routes, and everything. Anyone try the iPhone CycleOps Mobile app with this?

Too bad that USAT forbids iphones during races though.  Even if they are used as bike computers.
