    I must have one! A garmen + a power meter!! HOLY SMOKES!!!
    I have the 205 and I love it. I'm not a heart rate traiing kinda girl, so didn't feel I needed the 305, but the 705 with the power meter.... MUST HAVE!!!

    And seeing as how I can't remember how to get anywhere but on sight, I need this!! I am SOL when the seasons change because things look different, like house appear or disappear when the trees have/lose leaves. A little to pricey for me though.

    DH is taunting me with this one because it solves 2 of my problems--a 15 hour battery life (yeah, I'm a slow plodder) and the ability to save to disk (I only have tracks for 1/2 of my last vacation because the on-line storage dropped the first couple of rides to make room). But, can I really justify it?!?!?!?!

    I am really glad it is so expensive since I just bought a 305 and I quite like it. Trying not to think about the power meter and the mapping....

    My DH and I have 305's also, however when we ride new routes he usually has the 305 and the etrex for route maps both on his handlebars. This does it all, how cool is that. He's already told me it would be a nice xmas present.
    He better be very very good this year! wink wink nudge nudge
