Quoted message said:The Garmin is likely to be the "killer app" in bike computers. We've ordered a
boatload of 'em; they're supposed to begin arriving in about two weeks. But
don't expect to see any killer deals on them. There is virtually *no* money
being made by the dealer on these gadgets. Garmin is extremely unfriendly to
anybody buying in amounts smaller than $25k, explaining to dealers that
"That's the way it is in the electronics business."I'll be getting one the second they hit the shop, and I'll definitely report
my findings here.
Quoted message said:I've been trying to figure out if the 305 gives a grade %. I downloaded the
instructions but it is still not clear if the current grade is available. Anyone
know?
Page 65 of the owner's manual shows Grade % as one of the Data Fields
for both the 205 and 305.
I've been using Garmin GPS receivers for almost 7 years instead of a
cyclometer and can't see switching to one of these devices that won't
show me where I am on a map.
