Velomann

I'm considering getting this model of Velomann cycling computer. The bf says that he's never heard of it and I'm better off buying a Cateye strada with cadence but I'm getting sick of waiting for Chain Reaction Cycles to stock the darned thing. Also, the Velomann Speedstar V1.16 has lap times which I can't find in any other cycle computers. Has anyone ever used Velomann products or this particular cycle computer before? What did you like/hate about it?

Here's the link to the product page on CRC.
