How Does A Garmin Edge Gps Compute Calories?

I have a Garmin Forerunner which is the running equivalent of the Edge. It measures calories based on the weight that I set in my profile and the time/distance covered during a run. I don’t have the model with the heart rate monitor, but if you do, Garmin should also take your heart rate into account for calories burned.

I have a Nokia E71, which in case you’re unaware, has a internal GPS. I use T-Mobile prepaid, that means no GPRS, EDGE, or 3G… I am thinking of buying the Garmin Mobile XT for my E71, and if I have the internal GPS receiver, do I still need internet connection?
Please help!!
many thanks

I use a thick strap around much of the unit to attach it to my arm for running. Today it lost signal for two out of ten miles and I’m wondering if maybe I can locate the strap in a different way to avoid this happening in the future. Please include a reference for your answer if you can. Thanks!
