Pros: Ease of Use. Great display. Great design. Great analytics. Great price.
Cons: Motionbased add-on confuses me, doesn't seem fully baked. No problems with Forerunner at all.
The Bottom Line: Excellent Tool. Very well worth the money. Will save me a ton of time with all data dumped into computer. No more log books.

Pros: A terrific gadget for tracking speed, time, distance, heart rate, and calorie count.
Cons: Can be bulky on small wrists; control buttons are cumbersome, Garmin Support is poor.
The Bottom Line: This gadget keeps track of so many variables, such as speed, distance, pace, heart-rate, and calories burned. A great aid especially if you train alone. Purchase_only from a reputable_retailer.
