- different record intervals for different activities
- movement detection :: no (or only little) movement -> disable GPS receiver or at least enlarge the measurement interval
- automatically stop recording if speed is below a defined value.
- use different minimum speed values for different activities
- save the track data in intervals, so that at least the track data until power outage is available
- ... to be continued

A few updates (for the next MeeRun versions)
- Positioning will no longer use WIFI (only GPS), which should save quite a lot of power
- Update frequency will be configurable
- It will be possible to manually disable GPS during pauses

There might be a problem with the version I sent you by mail. You can try downloading the version of the app store (1.1.2 is fine, too).

I did not upload the version 1.1.4 because it does not have anything more than 1.1.2 expect for the paranoid and annoying option to optionally disable GPS (required by Nokia QA...). Version 1.2.0 will be more useful 
The only items which are supported are:
http://store.ovi.com/content/363791
http://store.ovi.com/content/366068
The problem is that you are using the old, broken item and it won't be maintained any more. Best thing to do would be to ask Nokia for a refound, otherwise I can also send you the release by e-mail.

It is indeed easy to implement but the GPS altitude is actually very unreliable (the accuracy is very bad compared to the horizontal information). Adding the altitude information is planned, though, but I will have to add some more filtering or ignore the information for distance calculation and use it only for diagrams and data files.
I think a good way to get very accurate altitude information would be to look it up on some geographical data servers on the internet using the longitudinal and lateral coordinates. This could be done after finishing the recording of the track in order to save battery life. However, the downside of this method would be that the vertical position is always fixed to the ground... I think it would make sense to implement an option so that the user can choose whether she our he wants accurate altitude information or unbound vertical position logging!

You are right, the GPS altitude is irrelevant for distance calculation but it still makes sense to use it for diagrams. I have a couple of ideas of how the real altitude can be calculated (geographical data servers like SRTM definitely make sense) and added to the activity settings.

I have found a nice article about MeeRun:
