I haven't used them, yet, but I have aerobars designed specifically for use on a road bike. Even if you switched to a road bike you could add a set of bars to give you additional positions and the ability to get aero for at least part of a race.

Thanks, everyone! I'll look into all of those suggestions and then head out to a few LBSs and see what feels good.

I love my cervelo RS which has 650c wheels in 48cm, and a relaxed geometry (higher head tube so not too big a drop from saddle to bars). But, its not a tri bike its a road bike and I don't do tris. But if veronica does tris on an S3 its similar.

The RS is more relaxed than the S3. I rented an RS while we were in HI. The RS is much more upright than the S3, not nearly as aerodynamic or as stiff. The S3 is a pure race bike. Check out what Thor Hushovd was riding when he won the World Championships.
I've done two HIM on it and I really like it and find it comfortable. But it is not relaxed.
