What is the equivalent number for a medical grade version of a CR-2032? Thanks for the tip!

You can get regular CR2032 batteries really cheap ($1.49 for 2) from roadid.com. (I use these in my flashing lights I wear in the dark, so I buy them 10 at a time.)

The number is the same. It will just say medical on the packaging.

When I initially bought my Edge, it only worked with PC's. At that time I had a pc, no problem. I've since changed over to a MacBook. Does anyone else use their Edge on a Mac?

I know this thread is about the 305, but does anyone have a 705? I'm personally curious about it. And yes, I know its excessive

I have to admit I'm curious about it also. It seems like a GPS-enabled device should have street maps, but if I really think I'm going to get lost, I'd bring a paper map. So it seems like the map would be useful once in a while, at best.

Yeah, but a paper map on my bike? Not a huge fan of packing stuff. I liike to keep it down to my seat pack, and if I have to, a small camelbak. Plus the garmin would go right on my handle bars

I just got a 705 about a month ago. I'm still learning to use it (have a lot of experience with my Forerunner 301), but what I love about the 705 most so far is being able to upload routes from Mapmyride.com. Then I tell it to navigate the route, and it beeps every time there's a turn upcoming, shows me a direction arrow and also the name of the road I'm supposed to turn on.

For a totally unfamiliar area, and especially for route planning without a computer, yeah, I'd want paper maps. But just for getting around - navigating bikeable streets in town while staying off the main roads; making sure I'm on track, and getting back on track if I get off - I LOVE my 705.

I've updated the mac software and can upload to training center and motionbased on my mac.
