Crabby, I feel partly to blame for your inability to resist such a great deal. I don't think you'll be sorry though. Last night after we talked, I thought I would offer to loan you mine to make sure you really liked it but now I won't. I'm looking forward to comparing data with you. It's all about the data, right? That's what I say anyway. LOL Wink Congratulations on your great buy.

I am still waffling on this!

I've had the Polar RS200sd running computer for a few years, which has better instantaneous pace monitoring, but you can't really connect it to a computer to offload the data (they advertise that you can, but it takes like 3 hours to get Soniclink to work properly, if it ever does), and it doesn't have a GPS, which is pretty frigging cool.

What to do? What to do?
Just got my garmin in the mail...on the charger now! I can't wait to play with it!!

If you don't buy in the next couple of hours then you can't get the $50 rebate. Might make your decision easier.

I swear buying a Garmin automatically sets a person up to get sick...I had mine for almost a week before I really could use it. Gah. Tongue

Guys,

Do you know if they ship to Australia? I would like to get it at that price. Our Aussie dollar is hovering around 92cents at the moment so with the exchnage rate its a bargain.

I think there's a specific version of the 305 available for the Aussie market...at least that's the way it looks from the Garmin site. Not sure how it would differ.
