Well I have thought about it, mulled it over, spent hours on the computer researching and was going to spring for the polar cs300 until I got THINKING about actually using it.

If I used it solely for my trip distance etc I would have to be putting it on the bike, taking it off, putting it on etc. everytime I rode.

I finally decided I would probably go a little less expensive and get the polar F6, it has the minimum that I need (minus the lap counter).

Then this spring I will just upgrading my bike computer to the wired Cateye astrale 8. the sensor mounts on the back wheel and I have never cared whether it is wired or not, I don't switch bikes at this time and probably won't be in the near future

Total price would be about $140 vs $229 for the CS300

thanks for your input ladies it really did help alot

OTG - how are you liking the CS300? It is a sweet piece of electronics
