Released May, 2010
The Pros:Upgradable firmware to remedy some issues the watch has in the future. Built-in GPS receiver for tracking your run accurately. Durable build quality.
The Cons:No footpod support - poor for those who run often on treadmills. Large physical size - looks bigger in person than it does in images, can be cumbersome to size sensitive individuals / those with smaller wrists. Measures distance is short - up to 2.5% in some cases.
