Have the Garmin 305 and I think it excellent. My brother has the Garmin 205 and thats also excellent. In fact it has the same funtionality as the 305, except that the 305 has a heart monitor, which I never use so the 205 would suit me just as well.
If you are a runner and/or cyclist, it gives you all you require about measuring your pace, distance etc. I find it great for knowing how far I have run (and still have to tun) and what pace I am doing. I mostly use the pace to know when I should be going slower rather than faster though, which is a great help when doing long runs (preparing for a marathon)

Has anyone bought anything from ForRunnersByRunners.com and did you have any problems with them?

Hi there bought a garmin in may forerunner 110 (new model) without hrm but you can buy with a hrm I bought it off a english sport website and it cost around 170 euro postage inc. I am very happy with it and probably dont use all its features. It logs time and distance and when you log it to the computer maps your run, elevation, calories and show your time per mile etc. My sister bought a forerunner 405 and while more expensive has the same features as 110 and as far as we can make out ability to set your speed per mile and the watch will beep if your too slow or too fast. If you go to garmin website you can compare different models. Def get a garmin whatever model suits you, you wont look back..
