I should show his to my wife who bought me the 305.She was doing it to be supportive,plus i wanted one just not right now.<br><br>
I do like the 405 i guess i will have to work some overtime to pay for it though.<br><br>
Just realized the pro is at the CES i wonder if he got to play with this thing.

That looks cool! I wonder if the battery life is similar to 301 or 305?<br><br><img alt="surprised.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/surprised.gif">

Wow, my 305 looks like a toaster.

 

[RunningForT3]

What's the battery life on 305??

 

[jroden]

About the same, maybe 8-10 hours

 

[RunningForT3]

Ah, I thought somebody knows how long it will last... over time... how many years?

 

[TriAndStopMe]

My guess is that the batteries would last at least until the 505 comes out. <img alt="wink.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/wink.gif"><br><br>
And damn, that sure looks purty!

I've still got a 201. Except that the Velcro band doesn't stick like it used to, it still does everything I need it to and I wear it on most of my runs. Maybe I'll wait for the the 501's!! No wait, those are blue jeans?!?!?

waterproof.<br>
$299?<br><br>
SOLD.

 

[LeftRightRepeat]

No more so than the current model. Still IPX7 "Water Resistant" - 1 meter for 30 minutes. Still not recommended for swimming. I don't get why they wouldn't spec a requirement that it be usable for your typical IM swim.

 

[pcsronbo]

so you mean i have to improve my IM swim to sub30? dang. That'll be tough <img alt="smile.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/smile.gif"><br><br>
But HIM I could pull it off I guess, now i have a reason!<br><br>
$299 + foot pod $119 + HR strap $60 + Bike Crud $80 = $560<br><br>
Still droolin... just sayin

 

[Tithers]

I used to be a garmin girl...until I figured out swimming and garmin don't mix.<br><br>
Now I'm a polar girl. Grooowl!

 

[pcsronbo]

i've been a local Polar 625x user since it came out. Have 2 actually. But I really would love the GPS function to map my routes and get my elevations.<br><br>
plus I'm a gear whore

I'm sorry, but that display looks tiny. I'll stick with my 305, thank you.
