I realise that the Polar for Nokia Heatrate Monitor Chest Strap will be released in a package with the N79 Active, but will be compatible with other Nokia Mobile phone like, say, my S60 3.1 Nokia N95 8Gb as I would buy one.

The protocol used for WIrelink is hopefully open to use on my Nokia 5800 also. I can't find the wirelink heartbeatstrap in the Nokia shop. Perhaps it will be on the shelfes coming weeks? I run a lot so I am looking forward in upgrading my 5800 with my heartbeat and letting go of my Suunto T4.
Other question, are you able to pair for instance a Polar watch and the Nokia 5800 at the same time? It will surely make my day!

Some days ago I accost Polar with this problem.
Maybe this I helpfully to you elmar:
"Sehr geehrter Herr xxx,
es ist ein spezieller Bluetooth WearLink, den wir zur Zeit nicht einzeln
vertreiben. Ein Armbandempfänger ist nicht kompatibel."
It seems that pairing a Polar watch isn't able for now.
And the Bluetooth WearLink is an special one.
Furthermore I asked if there will it be able to buy this special chest strap separately.
Answer was:
"Sehr geehrter Herr xxx,
leider können wir Ihnen hier noch keine Auskunft geben, evtl. werden wir
den Sender separat vertreiben."
So maybe Polar will sell this gadget in the next time. (Hopefully)
I really want to upgrade my phone to the N79 but my operator doesn't stock the 'Active' bundle so I found this site while looking for where to buy the chest strap separately. Surely an accessory like this should be available to buy after you have purchased the phone!?!?!
I've just started running and am using a 5800 with the latest version of Sportstracker (1.83) and it definitely has an option to pair with a Polar heartrate monitor but there's none to buy ... Is there any way to purchase the heartrate monitor separately? I can't find it or the N79 active anywhere yet ...
@atmasphere, For the latest NST announcements, join and stay tuned to the SportsTracker Fans group at the SportsTraker web site.. As of March 18, 2009 there has been no official word on the availability of the "Polar for Nokia" HR belt outside of the N79 Active package.
My current setup: unbranded e61 product code 0529654 Euro-B1 Silver. Firmware: 3.0633.09.04. Theme: Ovi blue. Service provider: 3 Sweden. Peripherals: Bluemax ext BT GPS module
I have been looking for it myself. I have found the Polar monitor is called a Polar Wearlink I believe. Has anyone tried it with a Nokia 5800?
take a look a this link
